Active and Passive Voice
( कर्तृ एवं कर्मवाच्य)
नीचे दिए गए वाक्यों को ध्यान से पढ़िए
- Hari killed a cobra.
- A cobra was killed by Hari.
पहले वाक्य में Subject – Hari है। इसने a cobra (एक नाग) को मारने का कार्य किया, जबकि दूसरे वाक्य में Subject -A cobra है। इसने कोई कार्य नहीं किया, बल्कि यह कार्य से प्रभावित हुआ और खुद ही मर गया। पहला वाक्य Active Voice में है और दूसरा वाक्य Passive Voice में। Active Voice में Subject महत्वपूर्ण होता है, जबकि Passive Voice में Verb महत्वपूर्ण होता है। इस प्रकार Voice दो प्रकार के होते हैं
- Active Voice
- Passive Voice
Use of Active and Passive Voice
(Active और Passive voice के प्रयोग)
Active Voice
- जब वाक्य में verb (क्रिया) द्वारा Subject (कर्ता) को प्रधानता दी जाती है। तात्पर्य यह है कि वाक्य में Subject
स्वयं कार्य को करे। जैसे
(i) I write.
(ii) Birds fly in the sky. - वाक्य में जब Subject (कर्ता) कोई universal truth से संबंधित हो। जैसे
(i) The sun rises in the east.
(ii) The winter season has set in. - मन की भावनाओं को व्यक्त करने के उद्देश्य से। ये वाक्य Active Voice में अच्छे लगते हैं। जैसे
(i) I wish you a happy new year.
(ii) I cried at Sarita. - साधारण Conversation (बोल-चाल) की भाषा में प्रायः Active Voice का प्रयोग किया जाता है। जैसे
(i) I go to the market.
(ii) Ravi is coming back from school.
Passive Voice
- वाक्य में जब Object (कर्म) अर्थात् कार्य करने वाले को प्रधानता दी जाए। जैसे
(i) Active : He has stolen my pencil.
Passive : My pencil has been stolen by him.
(ii) Active : You wrote a good letter.
Passive : A good letter was written by you. - कर्ता की सही जानकारी के अभाव में वाक्य को पूर्ण करने के उद्देश्य से। जैसे
(i) I was stopped at the check post.
(ii) My friend was not allowed to enter the gate. - Active Voice के वाक्य में प्रयुक्त Subject one, somebody, nobody आदि के संदर्भ में। जैसे
(i) Active : Somebody can quickly do it.
Passive : It can be quickly done.
(ii) Active : One can easily do this work.
Passive : This work can be easily done.
(iii) Active : Nobody can do it.
Passive : It cannot be done. - जब किए गए कार्य को प्रधानता दी जाए अर्थात हमारी रुचि कार्य में हो। जैसे
(i) Active : The government will open a school in this area.
Passive : A school will be opened in this area.
(ii) Active : The dispensary will distribute new medicines in this village.
Passive : New medicines will be distributed in this village.
(नोटः उपर्युक्त दोनों वाक्य Passive Voice में अच्छे लगते हैं।) - Research और विज्ञान के क्षेत्र में Passive Voice के वाक्य प्रयोग किए जाते हैं।जैसे
(i) A new medicine is invented to fight dengue.
(ii) Science laboratories are established everywhere. - किसी घटना की Reporting के संदर्भ में प्राय: Passive Voice का प्रयोग किया जाता है।जैसे
(i) The prisoner is sent to jail.
(ii) The book was completed and published. - E-mail लेखन के उददेश्य से Passive Voice on को अधिक उपयुक्त समझा जाता है।जैसे
(i) Your mail is received.
(ii) Your complaint is lodged.
(iii) Your act is regretted.
(iv) You are pardoned.
Active Voice से Passive Voice में बदलना
- सर्वप्रथम दिए गऐ वाक्य में, Subject, Verb व Object को underline कर लें।
- Subject का Object बनाएाँ व Object का Subject बनाएाँ| इसके लिए ,यदि आवश्यक हो ता रूप परिवर्तन करें, Subject की जगह Object व Object की जगह Subject को रख देते हैं।यह रूप परिवर्तन निम्न प्रकार होता है।
I-me, We-us, She-her, He-him, They-them, It-it और You-you. - यदि वाक्य में दो Object at हो तो आमतौर से Indirect Object को ही Subject के रूप में प्रयोग में लाते हैं। वैसे Direct Object को भी Subject बनाकर Passive voice बनाया जा सकता है। जैसे
The teacher taught them Sanskrit.
They were taught Sanskrit by the teacher.
Sanskrit was taught them by the teacher. - Active Voice से Passive Voice बनाते समय Verb की IIIrd form प्रयोग में ली जाती है व इसके पहले Tense के अनुसार be की form लगाते हैं।
- Be की form निम्न हैं :
(i) Present Indefinite Tense में is/am/are
(ii) Present Continuous Tense में is/am/are + being
(iii) Present Perfect Tense में has/have + been
(iv) Past Indefinite Tense में was/were
(v) Past Continuous Tense में was/were + being
(vi) Past Perfect Tense में had + been
(vii) Future Indefinite Tense में will be/shall be/may be/can be/would be/should be/ might be/could be/must be या let be.
(vii) Future Perfect Tense में will have been/shall have been/may have been/would have been/ should have been/might have been या must have been. - Passive Voice में Object के पहले by लगाते हैं। यदि Subject अनिश्चित है जैसे someone, somebody, nobody, they, people आदि तो वाक्य को Passive Voice में बदलने पर इसे लिखते नहीं। अतः by का प्रयोग भी नहीं होता।
- Continuous Tense में उपर्युक्त दी गई be की form के आगे being + Verb की IIIrd form लगाते हैं।
- केवल सकर्मक क्रिया (transitive verb) का passive बनता है; जैसे-eat, see, read, write, drink,teach आदि
- अकर्मक क्रिया (Intransitive Verb) का Passive नही बनता है; जैसे-stand, sit, weep, go, come, sleep, laugh आदि
- तीनों Perfect Continuous व Future Continuous Tense का Passive नहीं बनता अर्थात् has been, have been, had been, will have been, shall have been, may have been it will be या shall be + Verb + -ing वाले वाक्यों का Passive नहीं बनता।
- Active Voice से Passive Voice में बदलते समय Qualifying Words उस शब्द के साथ बने रहते हैं,जिसे वह Qualify करते हैं।
- यदि कर्ता (subject) महत्वपूर्ण न हो या ज्ञात न हो तो उसे Passive Voice में लिख नहीं करते e.g
English is spoken all over the world (by people).
My pocket has been picked (by someone).
उपर्युक्त वाक्यों में ब्रेकिट में लिखे गए by people व by someone अच्छे नहीं लगते और meaningless है, अतः इन्हें लिखा नहीं जाता। - यदि Verb के साथ Active Voice में कोई Preposition लगा हो तो Passive Voice में भी वह लगा रहेगा।
Ramesh made fun of the lame man.
The lame man was made fun of by Ramesh.
Sarita brought up an orphan.
An ohphan was brought up by Sarita. - Active Voice में who से शुरू होने वाले प्रश्न Passive Voice में By whom से शुरू होते हैं।
Who has beaten the baby?
By whom has the baby been beaten?

Imperative Sentences
जिन वाक्यों में आज्ञा (order), प्रार्थना (request), सलाह (advice) या निषेध (prohibition) पाया जाए उन्हें हम Imperative Sentences कहते है।
इन वाक्यों को Active Voice से Passive Voice में बदलते समय वे ही नियम काम में आते हैं, जो सामान्य वाक्यों को Active Voice से Passive Voice में बदलते समय काम में आते हैं। अंतर केवल इतना है कि इनमें Let या Should का प्रयोग करके भी Passive बनाया जा सकता है।
- इनमें एक विशेष वाक्य-रचना (word-order) रहती है जो निम्न प्रकार है
Structure:
(i) Let + Subject + be + Verb on IIIrd form + by Object.
(ii) Subject + should be + Verb की IIIrd form + by Object.
(iii) Your are ordered / advised / requested to + ……
यह नोट करें कि by को लिखना आवश्यक नहीं हैं। यदि Object को लिखना अत्यावश्यक हो तभी by Object का प्रयोग करें। - इस प्रकार के वाक्यों में Active Voice में हमेशा ही Subject – You रहता है, जिसे आमतौर से लिखा नहीं जाता, लेकिन Passive Voice में यह कभी-कभी लिखा जाता है।
- इन वाक्यों में Active Voice में हमेशा ही Verb की Ist form आती है जो Passive Voice में बदलने पर नियमानुसार be + Verb की IIIrd form हो जाती है।
- इस प्रकार में वाक्यों में हिंदी में Verb वाक्य के अंत में लिखा जाता है, जबकि English में वाक्य Verb से आरंभ होता है।
- यदि Adverbs जैसे please, kindly, always या never आदि वाक्य में प्रयुक्त हों तो उन्हें आमतौर से Verb से पहले लिखते हैं।
- Please या Kindly से आरंभ होने वाले वाक्यों का Passive – You are requested to से आरंभ करके भी बनाया जाता है।
Examples:
- Active : Open the window.
Passive : Let the window be opened. - Active : Switch off the bulb.
Passive : Let the bulb be switched off. - Active : Help the needy.
Passive : The needy should be helped. - Active : Kindly solve this problem.
Passive : You are requested to solve this problem. - Active : Please give me a pencil.
Passive : You are requested to give me a pencil.
Verbs with Two Objects (Two Objects के साथ Verbs)
जब Active Voice में Verbs के दो Objects हों तो एक Object को Subject में बदल दिया जाता है और दूसरे Object को अपनी पूर्व स्थिति में छोड़ दिया जाता है, लेकिन इस Object के साथ उचित Preposition का प्रयोग होगा।
Examples:
- Active : The man taught him a lesson.
Passive : A lesson was taught to him by the man.
Or
He was taught a lesson by the man. - Active : He gave me a good advice.
Passive : I was given a good advice by him.
Or
A good advice was given to me by him. - Active : The Principal gave me a prize.
Passive : A prize was given to me by the Principal.
Or
I was given a prize by the Principal. - Active : The teacher told us an interesting story.
Passive : An interesting story was told us by the teacher.
Or
We were told an interesting story by the teacher. - Active : Mrs. Saha teaches her English.
Passive : English is taught to her by Mrs. Saha.
Or
She is taught English by Mrs. Saha.
Interrogative Sentences
Interrogative Sentences का Passive Voice प्राय: Interrogative Sentences ही होता है। इसके Passive Voice में Question Word के बाद उपयुक्त Helping Verb लगाकर Verb की IIIrd form का प्रयोग किया जाता है।
Examples:
- Active : Why did you beat him?
Passive : Why was he beaten by you? - Active : Which boy scolded you?
Passive : By which boy were you scolded? - Active : What do children do in the field?
Passive : What is done by children in the field? - Active : Who wrote this letter?
Passive : By whom was this letter written? - Active : Have you closed the window?
Passive : Has the window been closed by you?
Sentences Starting with Wh-/Ho- Question Words
Wh-/Ho शब्दों से प्रारंभ होने वाले वाक्य
इन वाक्यों को Passive Voice में बदलते समय Question के बाद उचित Helping Verb लगाकर Verb की IIIrd form का प्रयोग किया जाता है। who के लिए by whom का प्रयोग किया जाता है।
Examples:
- Active : Who broke this chair?
Passive : By whom was this chair broken? - Active : Why are you beating him?
Passive : Why is he being beaten by you? - Active : Whom did you help?
Passive : Who was helped by you? - Active : Which book did you buy?
Passive : Which book was bought by you? - Active : Where do you put your pen?
Passive : Where was your pen put by you? - Active : How much water can you drink?
Passive : How much water can be drunk by you?
Negative Sentences
Negative Sentences के Passive Voice में do या did का प्रयोग नहीं किया जाता है। Present Indefinite Tense में is, am, are को verb के पहले रखा जाता है और मुख्य क्रिया (Main Verb) को Subject के बाद रखा जाता है। इसी प्रकार Past Indefinite Tense में was/were को Subject के आगे रखा जाता है।
Examples:
- Active : I can’t lift this box.
Passive : This box can’t be lifted by me. - Active : I don’t like cheese.
Passive : Cheese is not liked by me. - Active : Some children didn’t play football.
Passive : Football was not played by some children. - Active : I didn’t hug the little boy.
Passive : The little boy was not hugged by me. - Active : Rajat doesn’t read stories.
Passive : Stories are not read by Rajat.
Modals
Active Voice के कुछ Sentences में Modals का प्रयोग होता है। Modals के बाद Verb की First form का प्रयोग किया जाता है। ऐसे वाक्यों को Passive Voice में बदलते समय Modals के बाद be का प्रयोग कर Verb IIIrd form का प्रयोग होता है।
Examples:
- Active : My friend will help you.
Passive : You will be helped by my friend. - Active : We must read newspaper daily.
Passive : Newspapers must be read daily by us. - Active : Our team can win the match.
Passive : The match can be won by our team. - Active : Our class teacher may permit him to go home.
