Passive Voice - Voz Pasiva

Hablaremos en esta ocasión sobre un recurso gramatical de gran importancia en la lengua inglesa: la voz pasiva. 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. Observa los siguientes ejemplos:

Voz Activa The lady buys a new hat. La dama compra un sombrero nuevo. (El verbo "comprar" recae sobre "la dama" indicando que ella es quien realiza la acción)

Voz Pasiva A new hat is bought by the lady. Un nuevo sombrero es comprado por la dama. (En este caso interesa que "un nuevo sombrero es comprado" sin demasiada importancia de quien realiza la acción)

Para construir la voz pasiva es necesario que la oración en voz activa cuente con objeto directo, es decir que responda a la pregunta "¿qué cosa?", por ejemplo:

My sister lost the keys. Mi hermana perdió las llaves. ¿Qué cosa perdió mi hermana? Las llaves (éste es el objeto directo)

Luego el objeto directo establecido pasará a ocupar el lugar de sujeto, el sujeto de la voz activa pasa a ser complemento agente acompañado de la preposición BY y el verbo principal se coloca en pasado participio acompañado por el verto TO BE en el tiempo que se encuentra la voz activa. Por ejemplo:

My sister lost the keys. The keys were lost by my sister.

Observe en la oración pasiva que "the keys" ocupan el lugar de sujeto, "by my sister" es el complemento agente y el verbo principal está ahora en pasado participio acompañado por el verbo to be (were) en pasado simple ya que la oración activa se encontraba en ese tiempo verbal.

Veremos en el siguiente cuadro como se modifican los verbos de Voz Activa a Voz Pasiva:

Tiempo Verbal de la oración en voz activa	VOZ ACTIVA	VOZ PASIVA
Presente Simple	My brother studies the lesson.	The lesson is studied by my brother.
Presente Continuo	My brother is studying the lesson.	The lesson is being studied by my brother.
Pasado Simple	My brother studied the lesson.	The lesson was studied by my brother.
