VOICE CHANGE / ভয়েস চেঞ্জ

বাচ্য পরিবর্তন

বাংলায় যাকে বাচ্য বলে, ইংরেজিতে তাই-ই ‘Voice’। তবে বাংলায় বাচ্য তিন  প্রকারের কর্তৃবাচ্য, কর্মবাচ্য ও ভাববাচ্য। কিন্তু ইংরেজিতে Voice দুই প্রকার-    Active Voice এবং Passive Voice.

Voice বা বাচ্য মানে কথা বলার ধরন।

যদি কোন বাক্যের সামগ্রিক অর্থের ন পরিবর্তন না ঘটিয়ে কেবল মাত্র বাক্যটি  বলার  ধরন পাল্টে দেওয়া হয়, তাহলে সেইরূপ পরিবর্তনকে বাচ্য পরিবর্তন বা    Voice change বলে। যেমন :

        I love Bubu. (Active)

        Bubu is loved by me. (Passive)

এই দুটি বাক্যে অর্থের কোন পার্থক্য নেই। দুটি বাক্যের ক্রিয়াপদ love অর্থাৎ  ভালবাসা। কে ভালবাসে ? আমি। কাকে ভালবাসা হয় ? বুবুকে। সুতরাং দুটির    বক্তব্য  একই। দুই বাক্যে দুই প্রকারে ঐ একই কথা বলা হয়েছে।

অথাৎ দুটি বাক্যে বাচ্যের  পরিবর্তন হয়েছে, বিষয়বস্তুর পরিবর্তন হয় নি।

Voice সম্বন্ধে জানতে হলে Subject এবং Predicate সম্বন্ধে আগে বোঝা দরকার।অবশ্য এই Subject এবং Predicate সম্পর্কে আমরা আগেই আলোচনা করেছি।

এখন, আর একটু চর্চা করে নেওয়া যাক।

কোন sentence- এ যখন একটি কাজ সম্পন্ন হয় তখন যিনি ঐ কাজটি সম্পাদন  করেন তিনই Subject বা কর্তা। Subject is the doer of the action.

Perdicate হচ্ছে বাক্যের মধ্যে সেই শব্দসমষ্টি যা Subject-এর সম্পর্কে কিছু বলে।Predicate is the word or group of words that tells us something about the Subject.

আর Object বা কর্ম হচ্ছে Verb-এর (বা ক্রিয়ার) receiver (বা গ্রাহক)। এটি  Verb-কে গ্রহণ করে। এটি Noun বা Pronoun হতে পারে। যে verb-এর object থাকে তাকে Transitive Verb বা সকর্মক ক্রিয়া বলে। আর যার object থাকে  না তাকে বলে Intransitive Verb বা অকর্মক ক্রিয়া। যেমন :

The cat killed the rat.

এই বাক্যে,  

‘cat’’ — Subject (উদ্দেশ্য)

‘killed the rat’ — Predicate (বিধেয়)

এই বাক্যের Subject ‘cat’ হচ্ছে ক্রিয়ার সম্পাদক – ‘doer of action’; তাই  এটির Verb টি active কিন্তু Subject বা কতা যখন ‘receiver of action’ হবে, অর্থাৎ, ক্রিয়ার গ্রাহক হবে তখন এটির Verb টি Passive হবে। অর্থাৎ,

The cat killed the rat. (Active Voice)

The rat was killed by the cat. (Passive Voice)

The boy kicked the ball. (Active Voice)

The ball was kicked by the boy. (Passive Voice)

প্রথম sentence দুটোতে Subject হচ্ছে ‘cat’ এবং ‘rat’; দুটোতে Subject হচ্ছে  ‘boy’ এবং ‘ball । cat’ এবং boy’ হচ্ছে ‘doers of action’; ‘rat’ এবং ‘ball’ হচ্ছে ‘receivers of action’ |

তাহলে বঝা গেল, একটি বাক্যে কত অথাৎ Subject যখন সরাসরি বা প্রত্যক্ষভাবে  নিজেই ক্রিয়া সম্পাদন করেন তখন কর্তৃবাচ্য বা Active Voice হয়।

When the subject of the sentence is the doer or actor, the verb is active. যেমন :

I do it; He said this; He runs.

যখন বাক্যে কর্তা অর্থাৎ Subject সরাসরি কিছু করেন না, কাজটা তাঁর দ্বারা  সম্পন্ন হয়েছে এরূপ বুঝায় তখন কর্মবাচ্য বা Passive Voice হয়।

When the subject of the sentence is acted upon the verb is passive. যেমন :

It is done by me. This was said by him.

voice এর নিয়ম

বাচ্য পরিবর্তনের সময় চারটি সাধারণ নিয়ম অনুসরণ করতে হয়। যথা:-

(1) Active Voice এর কর্ম ‘Object’ passive voice এর ‘Subject’ হবে।

The object in the Active Voice becomes the subject in the Passive Voice.

(2) Passive Voice (Active Voice থেকে পরিবর্তিত) এর Subject এবং Active Voice এর tense অনুসারে ‘to be’ verb বসবে। 

Some form of ‘to be’ verb takes place according to the new subject in passive voice and the tense of the verb in Active Voice.

(3) Passive Voice -এ, Active Voice এর verb এর past participle (V3)         এর  রূপ  হবে।

The verb in the active voice is changed into the past participle form in the Passive Voice.

(4) Active Voice এর Subject বা কর্তা Passive Voice এ by-এর কর্মরূপে   বসবে। অর্থাৎ Object এর আগে ‘by’ বসবে।

The Subject in the ‘Active Voice’ becomes the Object in the Passive Voice, generally preceded by the preposition by’.

একটি উদাহরণ বিশ্লেষণ করে দেখা যাক—

I do it. (Active Voice)

এই বাক্যের Subject হচ্ছে I, Verb হচ্ছে ‘do’ এবং object হচ্ছে ‘it’.

এখন Voice Change-এর নিয়ম অনুযায়ী এই বাক্যের Object ‘it’ Passive   Voice-এর Subject হবে। তার পর এই Subject ‘it‘ এবং Active Voice-এর  tense (এক্ষেত্রে present tense) অনুযায়ী ‘to be’ verb বসবে। It এর পর  present tense-এর ‘to be’ verb হবে ‘is’। তাহলে হল ‘It is’. তারপর Active Voice-এর verb-এর past participle (V3) হবে। এক্ষেত্রে verb হচ্ছে ‘do’    এবং  তার  past participle(V3)-এর রূপ হচ্ছে ‘done’. তাহলে হল ‘It is done.  

সর্বশেষ নিয়ম হচ্ছে Active Voice -এর subject Passive Voice -এ ‘by’-এর  কর্ম হয়ে বসবে। এখানে Active Voice -এর subject ‘I’. ‘I’ এর কর্মরুপ হল – ‘me‘ অর্থাৎ ‘by me’. তাহলে পুরো বাক্যটি দাঁড়াল – ‘It is done by me.’   

সুতরাং –

I do it. (Active Voice)

It is done by me. (Passive Voice)
