Прошедшее совершенное (активное и пассивное)

В этом посте мы узнаем, как использовать пассивный залог прошедшего совершенного времени и как изменить активный залог на пассивный залог прошедшего совершенного времени.

Active and passive voice in the Past perfect tense

Давайте разберемся, в каких ситуациях мы используем активный и пассивный залог в прошедшем совершенном времени.

Когда использовать действительный залог в прошедшем совершенном времени?

Мы пишем предложения в активном залоге Past Perfect, когда хотим сосредоточиться на человеке/людях, которые совершили действие в прошлом до другого действия или времени.

Structure: Subject + had + past participle (V3) + object

• Subject = the doer of the action
• Object = the receiver of the action

Examples:

Она закончила проект до установленного срока.

Они уволились уволились с работы.

В этих примерах мы фокусируемся на человеке или людях, которые совершили действие в прошлом.

When to use the passive voice in the Past perfect tense?

 

Предложения пишутся в страдательном залоге прошедшего совершенного времени, когда мы хотим сосредоточиться на получателе действия: когда мы хотим рассказать о том, на что или на кого воздействовал автор действия.

А поскольку мы смещаем акцент с субъекта на объект глагола, объект становится субъектом, а субъект (деятель) становится нерелевантной или менее важной сущностью в предложении.

Structure: Object + had been + past participle (V3) + by + subject (doer)

Examples:

• The project had been completed by her before the deadline.
• The job had been quit by them.

Active and passive voice of Past perfect tense

Active voice:	Subject	had	V3	object
Passive voice:	object	had + been	V3	(by + subject)

 

Активно: я заплатил деньги.
(сосредоточившись на исполнителе действия «Я»)

Пассив: деньги были выплачены (мной).
(сосредоточившись на объекте, на который было совершено действие «Деньги»)

Обратите внимание, что мы обычно не добавляем автора действия в предложение, так как это не важно для смысла предложения или уже понятно. Но это полностью ваш выбор.
