wht is VOICE???????????

Hi

Voice or voicing is a term used in phonetics and phonology to characterize speech sounds, with sounds described as either voiceless (unvoiced) or voiced. The term, however, is used to refer to two separate concepts. Voicing can refer to the articulatory process in which the vocal cords vibrate. This is its primary use in phonetics to describe phones, which are particular speech sounds. It can also refer to a classification of speech sounds that tend to be associated with vocal cord vibration but need not actually be voiced at the articulatory level. This is the term's primary use in phonology when describing phonemes, or in phonetics when describing phones.

At the articulatory level, a voiced sound is one in which the vocal cords vibrate, and a voiceless sound is one in which they do not. Voicing is the difference between the pairs of sounds that are associated with the English letters "s" and "z". The two sounds are symbolically written [s] and [z] to distinguish them from the English letters, which have several possible pronunciations depending on context. If one places the fingers on the voice box (ie the location of the Adam's apple in the upper throat), one can feel a vibration when one pronounces zzzz, but not when one pronounces ssss. (For a more detailed, technical explanation, see modal voice and phonation.) In European languages such as English, vowels and other sonorants (consonants such as m, n, l, and r) are modally voiced.

When used to classify speech sounds, voiced and unvoiced are merely labels used to group phones and phonemes together for the purposes of classification. We return to this below.

The voice of a verb represents the relationship between the action being described by it on the one hand and the subject and the object on the other.

Active Voice

Subject (doer of the action) + Verb (action) + Object (receiver of the action)

If the subject is the doer of the action (i.e., the subject is active), then the verb is in the active voice. This voice is used when the doer of the action is to be emphasised.

For example:

Pankaj found the treasure.

Here, ‘Pankaj’ is the subject, while ‘the treasure’ is the object. The doer of the action (‘to find’) is the subject. Hence, the verb is used in the active voice.

Passive Voice

Subject (receiver of the action+ BE (helping verb+ Verb (action) + Object (doer of the action)

If the subject is the receiver of the action (i.e., the subject is passive), then the verb is in the passive voice. In other words, the object in the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice. This voice is used when the receiver of the action is to be emphasised.

For example:

The treasure was found by Pankaj.

Here, ‘the treasure’ is the subject, while ‘Pankaj’ is the object. The receiver of the action (‘to find’) is the subject. Hence, the verb is used in the passive voice.

If the subject in the active voice is unknown or indefinite (for example: anyone, anybody, someone, somebody, people), then the passive voice is favoured.

For example:

Anyone can do this work.

(Here, the subject ‘anyone’ is indefinite.)

This work can be done.

(Here, the emphasis is on ‘the work’)

Changes in the verb form from the active voice to the passive voice

When the verb is in the simple present tense

Gagan throws the stone.

The stone is thrown by Gagan.

When the verb is in the present continuous tense

Gagan is throwing the stone.

The stone is being thrown by Gagan.

When the verb is in the present perfect tense

Gagan has thrown the stone.

The stone has been thrown by Gagan.

When the verb is in the simple past tense

Gagan threw the stone.

The stone was thrown by Gagan.

When the verb is in the past continuous tense

Gagan was throwing the stone.

The stone was being thrown by Gagan.

When the verb is in the past perfect tense

Gagan had thrown the stone.

The stone had been thrown by Gagan.

When the verb is in the simple future tense

Gagan will throw the stone.

The stone will be thrown by Gagan.

Definition. In traditional grammarvoice is the quality of a verb that indicates whether its subject acts (activevoice) or is acted upon (passive voice). The distinction between active and passive voice applies only to transitive verbs.

Water is a compound made up of hydrogen and oxygen, so pure water would be water that contains nothing but hydrogen and oxygen. However, pure water of this sort does not normally exist except in the controlled environment of a laboratory. Even in a laboratory pure water is hard to come by.If you want to know if your home's drinking water contains unsafe levels of lead, have your water tested. Testing is the only way to confirm if lead is present or absent. Some faucet and pitcher filters can remove lead from drinking water.A physical test for pure water is testing the boiling or freezing point. Pure water will boil at 100 degrees Celsius and freeze at 0 degrees Celsius. One chemical test is to use cobalt chloride paper - the paper will turn from blue to pink in the presence of water.A physical test for pure water is testing the boiling or freezing point.
