La diateza pasiva sunt niste reguli:
1.se formeaza cu ajutorul verbului "to be"
2. Folosim mereu a 3-a forma a verbului de conjugat
3 de obicei obiectul devine noul subiect
Exemplu:
Active voice
They are building a new house in the neighbourhood.
They-subiect
Are building- verbul la prezent
A new house-obiectul
Passive voice
A new house is being built in the neighbourhood.
A new house- noul subiect
Is being built- vb la forma a 3 a
