CBSE Class 9 English Grammar – Active And Passive Voice

September 26, 2017 by Bhagya

CBSE Class 9 English Grammar – Active And Passive Voice

Formulae Handbook for Class 9 Maths and ScienceEducational Loans in India

1. Voice:
Voice is that form of the transitive verb that shows whether the subject of the sentence is the doer of the action or has the action done to it. For example:
‘Mohan played football.’—This sentence is said to be in the active voice. Here, Mohan is the subject and he is the doer of the action, i.e. ‘played football’. The action of the subject is transferred to the object ‘football’, because Mohan has done something to the ‘football’. The passive voice of this sentence is:

  • Football was played by Mohan.

Here the subject is ‘football’ which was ‘object’ in the active sentence. So here something is done to the subject ‘football’, i.e. it suffers the action done by something or someone.

You can master in English Grammar of various classes by our articles like Tenses, Clauses, Prepositions, Story writing, Unseen Passage, Notice Writing etc.

2. Rules for the Change of Voice:

  1. The object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the verb in the passive voice. The preposition ‘by’ is put
    before it.
  2. The main verb of the active sentence changes into the past participle.
  3. The form of the verb to be (am, is, are, was, were, being, been) is placed before the main verb according to the tense.
    The auxiliary verb is changed according to the new subject in number and person.
