Voice change

সাধারণ অ‡_© Voice অ_© কণ্ঠস্বর। কিন্তু ব্যাকরণে একে বলা হয় বাচ্য। Verb-এর যেForm দ্বারা কর্তা যখন কাজটি নিজে করে বা অন্যের মাধ্যমে সম্পাদন করিয়ে নেয়এবং কZ©vi  সঙ্গে কাজের সম্পর্ক দেখায় এবং এইভাবে Verb-এর রূপের যে পরিবর্তনঘটে তাকে Voice বলে। যেমন:
a. He has made a basket. b. A basket has been made by him.ওপরের প্রথম বাক্যে কর্তা নিজে কাজ করেছে এবং দ্বিতীয় বাক্যে কর্তার ওপর কাজকরানো হয়েছে।
শিক্ষার্থী বন্ধুরা, আমরা লক্ষ্য করলে দেখতে পাই যে—
(i) object (receiver)-টি Subject হিসেবে প্রথমে বসেছে।
(ii) সাহায্যকারী verb-টি বসেছে।
(iii) অতিরিক্ত একটি be verb বসেছে।
(iv) verb Gi 3rd Form ব্যবহূত হয়েছে।

Voice সাধারণত দুই প্রকার। যথা—
1. Active voice (সক্রিয় বাচ্য) এবং 2. Passive voice (নিষ্ক্রিয় বাচ্য)|
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 KZv© অর্থাৎ subject নিজেইকাজটি সম্পাদন করেছে।
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:
Voice change-এর ক্ষেত্রে মৌলিক যে নিয়ম অনুসরণ করা হয় তা নিচে উল্লেখ করাহলো:
(i) আমরা জানি যে, মূল verb-এর পরে Object বসে।
(ii) তাহলে এবার Object হবে Subject|
(iii) তারপর বসবে To be verb/Auxiliary verb +
(iv) এবং মূল verb-এর Past participle বসবে।
(v) Subject-টি Object-রূপে by-এর পরে বসবে।
Voice change করার সময় একজন শিক্ষার্থীকে অবশ্যই বাক্যের Subject ওObject সম্পর্কে পরিষ্কার জ্ঞান থাকতে হবে। নিচের ছক অনুযায়ী এদের পরিবর্তন হয়েথাকে। যেমন:লক্ষণীয় বিষয়:
(a) কোনো কোনো ক্ষেত্রে Active voice-এ দুটি Object-এর মধ্যে যেকোনো একটিরপূর্বে Preposition থাকে। এ ধরনের বাক্যে যে Object-টির পূর্বে Preposition থাকেসেই Object-টি Passive voice -এর Subject হিসেবে ব্যবহূত হয় না। সঙ্গেরদ্বিতীয় 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.
(b) আবার কোনো কোনো সময় Active voice-এর দুটি Object থাকে। সে ক্ষেত্রেউক্ত Active Voice-কে Passive voice করার সময় প্রথম Object-টি অর্থাৎব্যক্তিবাচক Object-টিকে Subject করাই উত্তম।
Active : The Headmaster teaches us English.

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 ব্যক্তিবাচকObject হওয়ায় তাকে Passive voice-এর Subject হিসেবে বসানো হয়েছে।

কিছু ব্যতিক্রম নিয়মের Voice change:
1. Quasi-passive Verb: Quasi শব্দের অর্থ half বা অর্ধেক। অর্থাৎ Half-passive = Quasi-passive. অতএব বলা যায়, যেসব Verb Half passive-এর অর্থ প্রকাশ করে তাকে Quasi-passive verb বলে। এদের Passive করতে হলে নিম্নলিখিত নিয়ম অনুসরণ করতে হবে:
১ নম্বর সূত্র: Sub + Be verb + Complement + When (if) + It/they +Be verb + Verb-এর Past participle.
২ নম্বর সূত্র: Subject + Be verb + Verb-এর Past participle + Complement.
Active : Honey tastes sweet.
Passive : Honey is sweet when it is tasted.
(১ নম্বর সূত্র)
Honey is tasted sweet. (২ নম্বর সূত্র)
Active : The bed feels soft.
Passive : The bed is soft when it is felt
The bed is felt soft.
Active : This story reads funny.
Passive : This story is funny when it is read.
This story is read funny.
2. Reflexive Verb:
যে verb-এর Subject এবং Object একই ব্যক্তি তাকে Reflexive verb বলে এবং Object-টিকে Reflexive object বলে। একে Subject করা যায় না। একে by-এর পরেই রেখে দিতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : He hurt himself.
Passive : He was hurt by himself.
Active : She killed herself.
Passive : She was killed by herself.
Active : He poisoned himself.
Passive : He was poisoned by himself.
3. Factitive Object: যেসব Object ক্ষণস্থায়ী অর্থাৎ মানুষের মতামতের ওপর যাদের স্থায়িত্ব নির্ভর করে সেসব Object-কে Factitive object বলে। এদের স্থায়িত্ব স্বল্প বিধায় এদেরকে বাক্যের Subject করা যায় না। তাই এদের পূর্ববর্তী Object-কে Subject করে Passive voice করতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : We made him captain .
Passive : He was made captain by us.
= Captain was made him by us হবে না।
Active : We call him a fool.
Passive : He is called a fool by us.
= A fool is called him by us হবে না।
