VOZ PASIVA

La voz pasiva se utiliza cuando se desea expresar una accin poniendo ms nfasis en el objeto que en la persona

que realiza dicha accin. Por ejemplo:

You boil the water for two minutes.

Esta oracin indica que alguien hierve el agua durante dos minutos. En la siguiente oracin, sin embargo, se

expresa lo mismo pero sin importar quin realiza esa accin.

The water is boiled for two minutes.

Para formar la voz pasiva, se toma el verbo en cuestin y se lo convierte al participio pasado. Luego se agrega el

verbo to be en la conjugacin y tiempo que corresponde al nuevo sujeto.Por ejemplo:

The police rescued the boy.The boy was rescued by the police.

La primera oracin se encuentra en voz activa. La segunda, en voz pasiva.

El objeto de la primera oracin (the boy) para a ser el sujeto en la oracin en voz pasiva.

El verbo de la primera oracin (rescued) se convierte en "was rescued". Recordemos la regla: Se toma el participio

pasado del verbo y se agrega el verbo to be conjugado en el tiempo que corresponde (en este caso el pasado) y para

la persona que corresponde (the boy).

El sujeto de la primera oracin (the police) pasa a sercomplemento agente en la voz pasiva, agregando by delante.

El complemento agente no siempre es colocado en la oracin. Solamente se agrega si es relevante.

Veamos otros ejemplos de frases en voz pasiva:

That horse kicked me!

I was kicked by that horse!

The police arrested the thieves.

The thieves were arrested by the police.

I peel the tomatoes.

The tomatoes are peeled.
