📘 Materi TBI : Passive Voice and Adjective Clause
1. Passive Voice (Kalimat Pasif)
Pengertian: Passive voice adalah bentuk kalimat di mana subjek kalimat dikenai tindakan, bukan melakukan tindakan. Biasanya digunakan ketika pelaku tidak penting atau tidak diketahui.
Rumus Umum:
- Subject (yang dikenai aksi) + to be + V3 (past participle) [+ by + agent (optional)]
Keterangan: Bentuk "to be" menyesuaikan tenses:
- Present Simple: am/is/are + V3
- Past Simple: was/were + V3
- Future Simple: will be + V3
- Present Perfect: has/have been + V3
- Past Continuous: was/were being + V3
- Future Perfect: will have been + V3
Contoh Kalimat:
- Aktif: The chef cooks the meal.
- Pasif: The meal is cooked by the chef.
- Aktif: They will finish the project.
- Pasif: The project will be finished by them.
- Aktif: She has written a novel.
- Pasif: A novel has been written by her.
2. Adjective Clause (Klausa Adjektiva)
Pengertian: Adjective clause (juga disebut relative clause) adalah klausa yang berfungsi sebagai kata sifat dan menjelaskan atau memberikan informasi tambahan tentang noun (kata benda).
Ciri-ciri Adjective Clause:
- Biasanya diawali dengan relative pronoun seperti who, whom, whose, which, that.
- Dapat ditempatkan setelah noun yang dijelaskan.
- Noun + Relative Pronoun + Subject/Verb (klausa penjelas)
Contoh Kalimat:
- The man who lives next door is a doctor. ("who lives next door" menjelaskan "the man")
- The book that you gave me is interesting.
- The student whose phone rang in class was embarrassed.
- The car which was stolen has been found.
- Do you know the girl whom I met yesterday?
Catatan: Dalam beberapa kasus, relative pronoun bisa dihilangkan (khususnya that
dan whom
) jika tidak menjadi subjek dari klausa tersebut.
Contoh:
- Lengkap: The movie that we watched was amazing.
- Tanpa "that": The movie we watched was amazing.
