VOZ PASIVA EN INGLÉS
PASOS PARA TRANSFORMAR UNA ORACIÓN PASIVA
Vamos a explicar como pasar una oración a pasiva a partir del siguiente ejemplo:
- The boy bouht the house - The house was bought (by the boy)
Primer paso: El objeto de la oración activa (que normalmente es la primera palabra o sintagma nominal que aparece después del verbo principal de la oración activa - the house se convierte en sujeto en la voz pasiva.
Segundo paso: Tenemos que escribir el verbo TO BE en la oración pasiva, en el mismo tiempo verbal que el verbo de la oración activa. Es decir, si el verbo de la oración activa está en presente, tenemos que poner am, is o are en la oración pasiva. Si el verbo principal de la activa está en pasado, pondríamos was o were, y si estuviese en futuro pondríamos will be.
Tercer paso: El verbo principal de la oración activa, se transforma en participio en la pasiva.
Cuarto paso: El sujeto de la oración activa (the boy) se convierte en complemento agente en la voz pasiva introducido por la preposición - by (by the boy)
