Untuk mengubah sebuah kalimat aktif ke dalam kalimat pasif, kalimat yang akan diubah biasanya mempunyai kata kerja transitif . Namun tidak semua transitive verb, kata kerja yang memiliki direct object, dapat dipasifkan. Beberapa kata kerja tersebut yang antara lain: have, become, lack, look like, mean, dll akan terdengar tidak wajar maknanya ketika dipasifkan. (Coba nanti diterangkan apa itu transitif verb dan direct/indirect object)
