Active and passive voice
Voice means the form of the verb. There are two special verb forms. These are
Active voice &
Passive Voice
The active voice is a form of the verb that we usually used. In active voice, the subject performs the action and the object receives. The action or the object is affected by the verb.
Active voice በተለምዶ የምንጠቀምበት የግሥ አይነት ነው። በactive voice ርዕሰ ጉዳዩ (የአረፍተ ነገሩ ባለቤት) ድርጊቱን ያከናውናል። በዚህ ጊዜ Object ድርጊት ተቀባይ ነው። በአጭር ቋንቋ በactive voice ጊዜ
Subject አድራጊ (doer) የምንለው ሲሆን
Object ደግሞ ድርጊት ተቀባይ (receiver) ይሆናል።
#Example 1 Rain erods the fertile soil.
#Rain subject
#Fertile_soil object
#erod V1
እስኪ ወደ አማርኛ እናምጣው
"ዝናብ ለም አፈርን ይሸረሽራል።"
"Rain erods the fertile soil."
እዚህ አ/ነገር ላይ ምን ተረዳቹህ?
Rain(ዝናብ) ለም አፈርን እንደሚሸረሽር።
ስለዚ Rain አድራጊ(doer) ሲሆን fertile soil
ድርጊት ተቀባይ ወይም ተደራጊ (receiver) ነው።
Form of active voice
Subject(doer) + main verb/helping verb + object(reciver)
The Passive Voice is the form of the verb that is used when the subject is affected by the action of the verb, we use this voice when we give emphasis for object.
Passive voice የግስ አይነት ሲሆን የአረፍተ ነገሩ ባለቤት በግስ ድርጊት ሲነካ ነው። ይህንን (passive) የምንጠቀመው ለObject ትኩረት ስንሰጥ ነው።
ከላይ ያሳየኋችሁን Example 1 አስታውሱ
#Example 2
The fertile soil is eroded by the rain.
ይህ example ከ example 1 ጋር በምን ይለያያል? በደንብ እዩትና ለራሳቹህ መልሱት።
በዚህ example 2
Fertile soil Subject
Rain object
ስለዚህ Subject እና object ቦታ ተቀያይረዋል ማለ ነው።
"ለም አፈር በዝናብ ተሸርሽሯል።"
"The fertile soil is eroded by the rain."
እዚህ አረፍተነገር ላይ የምናየው ስለ Fertiel soil ስለመሸርሸሩ ነው። ስለዚህ የአረፍተ ነገሩ
subject fertile soil
Object Rain ይሆናል ማለት ነው።
Form of Passive voice
Subject + be verb + V3 + by agent
Be verb ( is, am, are, be, was, were....)
by agent ላይኖርም ይችላል።
#ትኩረት
"ዝናብ ለም አፈርን ይሸረሽራል።"
"Rain erods the fertile soil."
ስለ Rain እያወራን ነው
"ለም አፈር በዝናብ ተሸርሽሯል።"
"The fertile soil is eroded by the rain."
ስለ fertile soil እያወራን ነው
