THE PASSIVE VOICE

Como en español, la voz pasiva se forma con el verbo 'to be' (ser) y el participio pasado.
They made this car in 1963. (active) This car was made in 1963. (passive)
El sujeto de un verbo en pasiva corresponde al objeto de un verbo en activa.

	Spanish	is spoken in Argentina	PASIVA
	(sujeto)
Argentinians speak	Spanish	ACTIVA
	(objeto)

Estudia la siguiente lista de las formas del verbo en pasiva.
(pp = participio pasado)
 

Verb Tense	Structure	Example
PRESENT SIMPLE	am/are/is + pp	Spanish is spoken here.
PRESENT CONTINUOUS	am/are/is being + pp	Your questions are being answered.
FUTURE (WILL)	will be + pp	It’ll be painted by next week.
FUTURE (GOING TO)	am/are/is going to be + pp	Terry is going to be made redundant next year.

En las formas del ‘future progressive’ (will be being + pp) y ‘perfect progressive’ (has been being + pp) no es muy común su uso.
Para decir quién hacía la acción o qué la causaba, usa 'by'.

La voz pasiva se suele utilizar cuando se desconoce o no interesa mencionar quién o qué hace la acción.
Es más normal encontrar en español formas con ‘se’, por ejemplo: ‘se habla’, ‘se alquila’ o verbos en plural como ‘venden’, ‘compran’.

AQUÍ LA ORA CIÓN  NO ESTA CON  EL AGENTE When was this house built? / ¿Cuando se construyó ( fue construida) ésta casa?
