Passive Voice

Today we’ve had a very interesting grammar topic: Passive Voice (Страдательный Залог). When do we use Passive Voice?

Passive Voice: Rule

The rule is very simple: We use Passive Voice when something or somebody receives the action*

*Мы используем Passive Voice, когда над чем-то или кем-то совершается действие (дословно, когда кто-то «получает действие», а не производит его сам).

В русском языке можно легко узнать пассивный залог: «Дома строят летом» (дом не строит сам себя, его кто-то строит, то есть над ним совершается действие), «Его ищут» (не он сам себя ищет, а его кто-то ищет, опять же над кем-то совершается действие).

Passive Voice: Structure

J + be* + V₃/V_ed

_{I am loved ( Меня любят )}

*глагол be изменяется в каждом грамматическом времени

** В русском языке структура похожая, ее особенно хорошо видно в прошедшем и будущем временах (книга была написана, он будет найден и т.д.)

Passive Voice Chart

Структура пассивного залога в целом универсальна для каждого времени. НО! Единственное, что меняется – это глагол be.
