    Year 5 Ayat Aktif dan Ayat Pasif

    Switch whole sentences between active and passive — including the special passive for saya, kami and kamu, and passives with ter- and kena.

    • Ages 9–11
    • 3 quests
    • Beginner → Getting stronger → Challenge

    An ayat aktif puts the doer first: “Guru memuji Sarah.” An ayat pasif puts the receiver first: “Sarah dipuji oleh guru.” Both say the same thing with a different focus.

    What your child will learn

    • Change sentences between active and passive
    • Form the passive for saya, aku, kami, kita, kamu and awak
    • Recognise passives with ter- and kena

    Three kinds of passive

    With a third person (dia, mereka, Ali, ibu), use di- and oleh: “Lantai itu disapu oleh kakak.”

    With a first or second person (saya, aku, kami, kita, kamu, awak), drop di- and put the pronoun directly before the bare verb, with any helper word in front: “Kerja itu mesti kamu siapkan.” Passives can also use ter- for accidents (“Jari saya terhiris”) or kena (“Pencuri itu kena tangkap”).
