> Wanneer gebruik je de Passive?

De passive is de lijdende vorm. Je gebruikt de lijdende vorm wanneer het belangrijk is wat er gebeurt en niet wie er iets doet.

> De passive heeft altijd 2 elementen: het werkwoord to be + een voltooid deelwoord.
- The food is preserved (present simple) = THIS LESSON

- The food was preserved (past simple) = THIS LESSON

- The food is being preserved (present continuous)

- The food was being preserved (past continuous)

- The food has been preserved (present perfect)

- The food had been preserved (past perfect)

What does it look like?

STAPPENPLAN van active naar passive

1. Zoek het lijdend voorwerp (of meewerkend voorwerp) in de actieve zin.

John bought many houses last year.

2. Zet voorop in de nieuwe zin. Many houses ...

3. Zoek het werkwoordelijk gezegde = persoonsvorm + andere werkwoorden.

John bought many houses last year.

4. Bepaal de tijd van het werkwoordelijk gezegde uit de actieve zin.

bought = past simple

5. Zet om volgens het formule: was/were + past participle

bought = were (many houses = meervoud) bought

6. Herschrijf de zin (laat eventueel het onderwerp uit de oorspronkelijke zin weg).

Many houses were bought (by John).

John has bought many houses

Lijdend voorwerp? Many houses > vooraan

Werkwoord(en)? Has bought = present perfect > omzetten volgens de lijst > have been bought

Eventueel toevoegen: by John

<= do it in pairs, think about: active vs passive, why?

1. was formed = past passive
   => ... by the Big Bang
2. is divided = present P => ... by scientists
3. inhabit = active present 
4. is covered = present P => ... in water
5. was recorded = past P
   => ... by meteorologists
