What is a passive? 
A passive sentence is a sentence where the subject does not perform the action of the verb.  In fact, in a passive sentence, the action of the verb is done to the subject.


Slide 5 - Slide

When do you use a passive? 
  • When we want to change the focus of the sentence:
      "The Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo Da Vinci." 
      (We are more interested in the painting than the artist in this sentence)
  • When who or what causes the action is unknown or unimportant or obvious or 'people in general':
     "He was arrested (obvious agent, the police).." 
  • To distance yourself from the situation (popular in politics): 
      "Mistakes were made" instead of "I made a mistake" 

Slide 6 - Slide

How to form passive 
A passive always contains:  
  - a form of the verb "to be"
  -  the past participle of the main verb (voltooid deelwoord / 3e rijtje onr. ww) 

LET OP: als je in een actieve zin een bepaalde werkwoordstijd zou moeten gebruiken, gebruik je in de bijbehorende passive dezelfde tijd! 
I bought milk / Milk was bought

Rewriting sentences from active to passive. 
In the next slide you will see Dutch tips for rewriting the sentences.

In previous lessons we have done this in English, for the rerun the Dutch version => to ensure you know the rules!

Slide 18 - Slide

Stappen bij herschrijven van active naar passive

1. Heeft de actieve zin een meewerkend voorwerp? Dit wordt onderwerp van de passieve zin en komt vooraan in de zin.
2. Heeft de actieve zin wel een lijdend voorwerp, maar geen meewerkend voorwerp? Het lijdend voorwerp wordt onderwerp van de passieve zin en komt vooraan in de zin.
3. Geen lijdend én geen meewerkend voorwerp? Je kunt de zin niet passief maken.
4. Kijk naar de tijd waarin de persoonsvorm staat. Present simple? Schrijf op am / is / are. Past simple: schrijf op was / were. Hulpwerkwoord? Schrijf het hulpwerkwoord over en zet er be achter.
5. Zet het oorspronkelijke hoofdwerkwoord in het voltooid deelwoord.
6. Is je meewerkend voorwerp onderwerp geworden? Dan komt het lijdend voorwerp van de actieve zin als lijdend voorwerp in de passieve zin, direct na het voltooid deelwoord.
7. Zet er eventueel by + het oorspronkelijke onderwerp bij als dit zin heeft. 
8. Zet de bijwoordelijke bepalingen erbij.
