<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 27pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">
1.      
Active voice: কর্তা নিজেই কাজ করে অর্থাৎ কর্তা সক্রিয় এরূপ বোঝালে
verb-এর Active voice হয়।যেমন: উপরের বক্সে আমরা দেখতে
পাচ্ছি Active বাক্যে কর্তা  অর্থাৎ subject নিজেই কাজটি সম্পাদন করেছে।
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 27pt;">
 </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 27pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">
2.      
Passive voice: Verb-এর যে form দ্বারা কর্তা নিজে কাজ সম্পাদন করে না, বরং কাজটি অন্যের দ্বারা
করানো হয় এরূপ বোঝায় তাকে Passive voice বলা হয়। যেমন: <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in;">
Voice change করার সময় বাক্যের Subject ও Object সম্পর্কে পরিষ্কার জ্ঞান
থাকতে হবে। নিচের ছক অনুযায়ী এদের পরিবর্তন হয়ে থাকে। যেমন: <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 49.5pt; text-indent: -22.5pt;">
(a)       
কোনো কোনো ক্ষেত্রে Active voice-এ দুটি Object-এর মধ্যে যেকোনো একটির পূর্বে Preposition থাকে। এ ধরনের বাক্যে যে
Object-টির পূর্বে Preposition থাকে সেই Object-টি Passive voice –এর Subject হিসেবে ব্যবহৃত হয় না। সঙ্গের
দ্বিতীয় Object-টি Passive voice –এর Subject হিসেবে বসে। 
Active : She did for me the necessary things. 
Passive : The necessary things were done for me by her.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 49.5pt;">
 </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 49.5pt; text-indent: -22.5pt;">

Active : The Headmaster teaches us English. 
Passive : We are taught English by the headmaster. 
    Or,      English is taught us by the headmaster. 
উল্লিখিত বাক্যটিতে
লক্ষ করলে দেখা যায়, Active voice-টিতে teaches মূল verb-টির পরে দুটি Object যথাক্রমে us ও
English
আছে। এর মধ্যে
us

Object
