Cambio de voz activa a pasiva en tiempo presente continuo

Las oraciones en inglés se escriben en voz activa o en voz pasiva. En este post, aprendemos cómo escribir oraciones del tiempo presente continuo en voz activa y pasiva, y cómo cambiar la voz activa en voz pasiva.

El tiempo presente continuo, también conocido como tiempo presente progresivo, habla de las acciones que alguien está haciendo en el presente.

Active and passive voice of the Present Continuous tense

Active voice: Subject (doer) + is/am/are + V1+ing + object
Passive voice: The object (receiver of the action) + is/am/are + being + V3 + (by the doer)

Active: She is taking a class.
(she = doer of the action, is = helping verb = taking = main verb, a class = receiver of the action)

Passive: A class is being taken by her.
(a class = the new subject, is being = helping verb = taking = main verb)

En la voz activa del Presente Continuo, nos enfocamos en la persona que está realizando una acción actualmente en el presente.

En la voz pasiva del presente continuo, nos enfocamos en el objeto (el receptor de la acción) que está recibiendo la acción en el presente. El tiempo verbal se forma usando "is/am/are + being + V3".

Examples:

  • Active voice: Ashish is teaching English at this university.
  • Passive voice: English is being taught by Ashish at this university.
  • Active voice: They are making a movie about me.
  • Passive voice: A movie about me is being made (by them).
  • Active voice: A robot is serving food in this hotel.
  • Passive voice: Food is being served by a robot in this hotel.
  • Active voice: They are taking interviews for different posts.
  • Passive voice: Interviews are being taken for different posts (by them).
  • Active voice: The police are interrogating him right now.
  • Passive voice: He is being interrogated (by the police right now).
  • Active voice: Everybody is watching the final match.
  • Passive voice: The final match is being watched by everyone.
  • Active voice: Who is helping you in your project?
  • Passive voice: Who are you being helped by in this project?
  • Active voice: Ron is not training the kids.
  • Passive voice: The kids are not being trained (by Ron).
  • Active voice: Are they playing cricket right now?
  • Passive voice: Is cricket being played by them right now?
  • Active voice: Why is he not helping us?
  • Passive voice: Why are we not being helped by him?

NOTA: el verbo auxiliar (is/am/are) puede ser diferente en la voz activa y pasiva de una oración. La voz activa (verbo) sigue al que realiza la acción, y la voz pasiva (verbo) sigue al receptor de la acción.

En la voz pasiva, el autor de la acción, por lo general, no se menciona ya que el foco está en el receptor de la acción. Ocurre cuando el tema es menos importante, entendido o innecesario de mencionar.

Examples:

  • His interview is being taken.
  • The final match is being played at Wankhede Stadium.
  • The next video is being recorded.
  • Students are being punished for tricking the class teacher.
  • Some people are being arrested on the road.

Tenga en cuenta que en los ejemplos anteriores, no hemos agregado al autor de la acción, ya que no es en lo que nos estamos enfocando.
