Verb এর রূপ (Form) তার Subject সক্রিয় (Active) না নিষ্ক্রিয় (Passive) তা নির্দেশ করে তাকে Voice বা বাচ্য বলে।  

Voice is the form of the verb in the sentence that shows whether the subject acts or is acted upon. 

নিচের বাক্য ২ টি লক্ষ্য করিঃ

I eat rice

Rice is eaten by me.

এবার ওপরের বাক্য ২ টি খেয়াল করি যেখানে প্রথম বাক্যে verb হল eat আর দ্বিতীয় বাক্যে is eaten যেখানে প্রথম বাক্যে I হল Subject আর ২য় বাক্যে Rice হল Subject. 

Types of Voices:

There are two types of Voices

  1. Active Voice
  2. Passive Voice

Active Voice:

যে Voice দ্বারা বা  verb এর যে রূপ দ্বারা subject নিজে কাজ সম্পন্ন করে এরুপ বুজায় তাকে Active Voice বলে। 

যেমনঃ I eat rice. 

Passive Voice:

অন্যদিকে, Sentence এর subject যখন নিষ্ক্রিয় থাকে এবং অন্নের কাজ তার ওপর আরপ করা হয়, তখন verb এর Pasive Voice হয়।

যেমনঃ Rice is eaten by me. 

Transformation of Active Voice into Passive Voice: 

আমরা চেষ্টা করব একটা সহজ পদ্ধতিতে Active Voice কে Passive Voice এ রুপান্তর করা শিখতে। 

Active Voice: I eat a mango.  যেখানে I হল Subject, eat হল Verb আর a mango হল object. 

Passive Voice: A mango is eaten by me.  যেখানে a mango হল Subject, is eaten হল Verb আর by me হল object. 

Pronoun এর Subjective & Objective রূপঃ 

Subjective Case (Active Voice এর Subject) Objective Case (Passive Voice এর Object) 
I me
we us
you you 
she  her
he him
they them
it it

Note: Active Voice এর Object এসে Passive Voice এর Subject এ পরিণত হয় কিন্তু যদি Active Voice এর object না থাকে অর্থাৎ verb টি হয় Intransitive, তাহলে তার passive voice হয় ন। 

যেমনঃ She dances. 

এখানে object নেই তাই এর passive voice সম্ভব না।
