Passive Voice is a crucial grammatical concept in English. It shifts focus from the doer of an action to the receiver. This summary explores passive voice examples, passive voice structure, and its various applications across tenses.

  • Passive voice emphasizes the action rather than the actor
  • It's formed using "be + past participle" structure
  • Passive can be used in various tenses and with infinitives/gerunds
  • Some verbs like "give" and "buy" allow two passive constructions
  • Causative structures are related to passive voice

Page 2: Advanced Passive Structures and Usage

This page delves into more complex aspects of passive voice, including verbs with two objects and the use of prepositions in passive constructions.

Example: With verbs like "give", two passive constructions are possible: "He gave me a book" can become:

  1. "I was given a book"
  2. "A book was given to me"

The page explains that in passive sentences, the agent (doer) can be specified using "by", while the instrument used for the action is indicated with "with".

Example: "America was discovered by Christopher Columbus."

It also presents a table showing how passive voice can be used with infinitives and gerunds:

  • Infinitive: to be + past participle
  • Perfect Infinitive: to have been + past participle
  • Gerund: being + past participle
  • Perfect Gerund: having been + past participle

Vocabulary: Gerund - a verb form functioning as a noun, ending in -ing.

The page concludes with a note on the verb "need" and adjectival use of past participles:

Highlight: When "need" is used with a gerund, it already has a passive meaning, so "be" is not required.

Page 3: Causative Structures and Related Concepts

This final page explores causative structures, which are closely related to passive voice in terms of shifting focus from the doer to the action or result.

Definition: Causative structures express that someone causes or allows another person to do something.

The page outlines several causative structures:

  1. Get/Have something done: Used when the person doing the action is not important.

    Example: "Mark will have/get his car washed."

  2. Have somebody do something: Used when asking or paying someone to do something.

    Example: "Mark will have Albert wash his car."

  3. Get somebody to do something: Used when persuading someone to do something.

    Example: "Mark will get Albert to wash his car."

  4. Make somebody do something: Used when forcing someone to do something.

    Example: "Mark will make Albert wash his car."

  5. Let somebody do something: Used when giving permission for someone to do something.

    Example: "Mark will let Albert wash his car."

  6. Help somebody (to) do something: Used when assisting someone with an action.

    Example: "Mark will help Albert (to) wash his car."

Highlight: These causative structures provide nuanced ways to express how one person influences another's actions, ranging from permission to force.

This page complements the earlier discussion of passive voice by showing related structures that also shift focus in sentences.

Page 1: Introduction to Passive Voice

Passive voice, known as "edilgen yapı" in Turkish, is a grammatical structure where the focus is on the action rather than the doer. This page introduces the concept and basic structure of passive voice.

Definition: Passive voice is a sentence structure where the subject receives the action of the verb, rather than performing it.

The page contrasts active and passive sentences:

Example: Active: "I saw William at the concert hall." Passive: "William was seen by me at the concert hall."

It then outlines the basic structure for forming passive sentences across various tenses:

  • Simple Tenses: be + past participle
  • Continuous Tenses: be + being + past participle
  • Perfect Tenses: have + been + past participle

Highlight: In passive sentences, the doer of the action can be added using "by", but it's often omitted if unknown or unimportant.

The page also notes that only transitive verbs (verbs that take an object) can be used in passive voice.

Example: "The baby was crying" cannot be made passive as "cry" is an intransitive verb.
