Voice refers to the form a verb which indicates whether its subject is performing the action or whether the subject is being acted upon.
Voice एक क्रिया को संदर्भित करता है जो इंगित करता है कि इसका Subject काम कर रहा है या क्या subject पर कार्य किया जा रहा है या नहीं।
Two kinds of Voice
Active Voice : Subject performs action.
Passive Voice : Subject is acted upon.
Rules :
1. By making passive voice from Active Voice, Verb is always using 3rd form.
(Active voice से passive voice बनाते वक़्त हमेशा verb की 3rd form का प्रयोग होता हैँ )
2. When making passive voice from Active, the subject changes in object And when making Active Voice from passive, subject to Object.
(Active से passive voice बनाते समय subject को object मे बदलते हैँ और passive से active voice बनाते समय object को subject.)
3. Most of the passive voice (removing exceptions) is used By.
For example :- by me., by her, by you. Etc.
(Passive voice मे Object के साथ ज्यादातर (अपवादों को हटा कर ) By का प्रयोग होता है)
4. Changes for making passive voice from active voice.
