2. Para comenzar estableceremos la
diferencia con el lenguaje que
utilizamos habitualmente llamado
“voz activa” en el cual la acción
del
verbo
recae
sobre
el
sujeto, mientras que en la “voz
pasiva” la acción del verbo recae
sobre el objeto.
3. ¿Cómo transformamos una frase activa en una frase pasiva?
1) Buscamos el objeto (puede ser una cosa o una persona sobre la que recae
la acción del sujeto) de la frase activa y lo convertimos en sujeto.
Literalmente, le damos la vuelta a la frase.
• 2) Cambiamos el verbo principal (el que realiza la acción) a la
estructura verbo "to be" conjugado + participio del verbo.
