Hello everybody. This is a short presentation about the passive.
00:00:00
That's the grammar we've got in Unit 8.
00:00:04
The passive in the present form.
00:00:07
Look at what the dog is saying.
00:00:11
The water is splashed by the dog.
00:00:16
How do we form the passive?
00:00:21
The passive voice is formed in English in the same way as in Spanish,
00:00:22
with the appropriate form of the verb to be, ser, and the past participle.
00:00:27
Se forma de la misma manera que en el español
00:00:32
Look at these examples
00:00:37
The girl buys the flowers, active
00:00:39
Normalmente hablamos en activa
00:00:41
Una persona desempeña una acción
00:00:44
La niña compra las flores
00:00:47
But we can transform this sentence into the passive
00:00:49
¿Cómo pasamos esta oración a pasiva?
00:00:52
Hay un cambio en el orden de los elementos
00:00:55
The flowers are bought by the girl
00:00:57
Las flores son compradas por la niña.
00:01:00
Let's see how we form this.
00:01:04
How do we form the passive voice?
00:01:08
Let's see.
00:01:10
Vamos a ir paso por paso.
00:01:10
We've got the object, the verb to be, the past participle of the verb that expressed the action, and the agent.
00:01:12
Let's see.
00:01:20
Object.
00:01:22
El objeto, la cosa.
00:01:23
The verb to be.
00:01:26
Is or are, depending if it's singular or plural.
00:01:27
The past participle, remember, the third word, the third column in the verb list.
00:01:30
Volvemos a la parte de participio, ¿recordáis que lo hemos estado usando para el present perfect también?
00:01:37
By, but, bought, recordar el tercer verbo, la tercera forma de la lista de verbos.
00:01:43
And then we've got the agent, el que era el sujeto, quien hacía la acción en oración activa, se convierte en el agente,
00:01:50
Sigue haciendo la acción, pero la colocación de los elementos es diferente.
00:01:57
There is a different place in the elements in the sentence.
00:02:01
The girl buys the flowers.
00:02:05
Esta última es la activa.
00:02:12
The girl buys the flower.
00:02:14
La niña compra las flores.
00:02:16
Vamos a transformarla en pasiva.
00:02:18
The flowers son el objeto.
00:02:20
Pasan al principio.
00:02:23
They go to the front.
00:02:24
The flowers son compradas.
00:02:25
are bought by the girl. La niña, que era el sujeto de la oración, pasa a ser el complemento
00:02:28
agente, que en inglés ponemos con la preposición by. In Spanish we say por la niña, in English
00:02:35
we say by the girl. Ok? Ok, let's practice the change from active to passive. Look at
00:02:42
this picture. Do you recognize the story? Yes, Snow White. The wicked queen poisons
00:02:50
the apple. This is the active sentence. La reina malvada envenena la manzana. Let's put it in the
00:02:57
passive. The apple is poisoned by the wicked queen. La manzana es envenenada por la reina
00:03:03
malvada. Let's see another example. What about this story? The Hamelin. Yes, the piper of Hamelin.
00:03:09
Let's see. Look at the active sentence. The rats follow the Hamelin piper. La rata siguen al
00:03:18
flautista de Améline. Let's put it in the passive. The Hamelin Piper is followed by the rats. El
00:03:25
flautista de Améline es seguido por las ratas. Okay, you turn now. Think carefully. Look at this
00:03:32
picture. Do you recognize it? King Kong in New York. Okay, who climbs the skyscraper? Who? King
00:03:40
Kong yes King Kong climbs skyscraper let's transform this sentence into the
00:03:49
passive King Kong climbs the skyscraper is an active sentence because King Kong
00:03:57
is doing an action the action is climb he climbs the skyscraper to transform
00:04:02
this sentence into the passive form remember what do we have to do we move
00:04:08
the words in the sentence so skyscraper goes to the beginning the skyscraper is
00:04:12
climbed we put it into the passive form to be plus the past participle by King
00:04:24
Kong King Kong becomes the agent and goes at the end of the sentence okay so
00:04:30
hope with this presentation you understand the way the passive is formed you've got all these
00:04:38

00:04:45
