Chapter II discussion PASSIE VOICE

Use of Passive Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not known, however, who or what is performing the action. Passive voice is a voice that indicates that the subject is the patient or recipient of the action is denoted by the verb Example: My bike was stolen. In the example above, the focus is on the fact that my bike was stolen. I do not know, however, who did it. Sometimes a statement in passive is more polite than active voice, as the following example shows: Example: A mistake was made. In this case, I focus on the fact that a mistake was made, but I do not blame anyone (e.g. You have made a mistake.). Form of Passive Subject + finite form of to be + Past Participle (3rd column of irregular verbs) Example: A letter was written. Form of passive voice

1. Simple presen tense S + to be (is/am/are) + verb 3 + O Ex : a robot is made by ade 2. Simple past tense S + to be (was/were) + v.3 + O Ex : a naruto book was written by manga 3. Simple future tense S + shall/ will + be + v.3 + O Ex : a television will be bought by dwi 4. Present continuous tense S + to be (is/am/are) + being + v.3 + O Ex : a robot is being made by ade 5. Past continuous tense S + to be (was/were) + being + v.3 + O Ex : a naruto book was being written by manga 6. Future continuous tense S + sall/will + be + being + v. 3 + O Ex ;a television will be being bought by dwi 7. Present perfect tense

S + have/has + been + v.3 + O Ex : a robot has been made by ade 8. Past perfet tense S + had + been + v. 3 + O Ex : a naruto book had been written by manga : 9. Future perfect tense S + shall/will + have + been + v.3 + O Ex : a television will have been bought by dwi

Passive Sentences with Two Objects Rewriting an active sentence with two objects in passive voice means that one of the two objects becomes the subject, the other one remains an object. Which object to transform into a subject depends on what you want to put the focus on. Subject Active: Passive: Rita A letter wrote was written Verb Object 1 a letter to me Object 2 to me. by Rita.

Passive: .

was written

a letter

by Rita.

As you can see in the examples, adding by Rita does not sound very elegant. Thats why it is usually dropped.

Personal and Impersonal Passive Personal Passive simply means that the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence. So every verb that needs an object (transitive verb) can form a personal passive. Example: They build houses. Houses are built. Verbs without an object (intransitive verb) normally cannot form a personal passive sentence (as there is no object that can become the subject of the passive sentence). If you want to use an intransitive verb in passive voice, you need an impersonal construction therefore this passive is called Impersonal Passive. Example: he says it is said Impersonal Passive is not as common in English as in some other languages (e.g. German, Latin). In English, Impersonal Passive is only possible with verbs of perception (e. g. say, think, know). Example: They say that women live longer than men. It is said that women live longer than men. Although Impersonal Passive is possible here, Personal Passive is more common.

Example: They say that women live longer than men. Women are said to live longer than men. The subject of the subordinate clause (women) goes to the beginning of the sentence; the verb of perception is put into passive voice. The rest of the sentence is added using an infinitive construction with 'to' (certain auxiliary verbs and that are dropped). Sometimes the term Personal Passive is used in English lessons if the indirect object of an active sentence is to become the subject of the passive sentence.
