PASSIVE VOICE EXPLANATION AND EXERCISES

PASSIVE VOICE

FUNCTIONS OF THE PASSIVE VOICE

The passive voice is used to show interest in the person or object that experiences an action rather than the person or object that performs the action. In other words, the most important thing or person becomes the subject of the sentence.

EXAMPLES

The passive voice is used frequently. (= we are interested in the passive voice, not in who uses it.)
The house was built in 1654. (= we are interested in the house, not in who built it.)
The road is being repaired. (= we are interested in the road, not in the people who are doing the repairs.)

Sometimes we use the passive voice because we don't know or do not want to express who performed the action.

EXAMPLES

I noticed that a window had been left open.
Every year thousands of people are killed on our roads.
All the cookies have been eaten.
My car has been stolen!

ONLY POSITIVE THOUGHTS

Second Conditional - If I were rich, I would...

Si Clauses: Second Conditional

Oraciones condicionales: situaciones potenciales

The second conditional is an if-then proposition that expresses an unlikely situation: if something happened (the condition), then something else would happen (the result). The condition is expressed with the imperfect subjunctive, and the potential result is indicated with the conditional.

The order of the clauses makes no difference as long as si / "if" stays in front of the correct verb form:

si + imperfect subjunctive, then + conditional
conditional, si + imperfect subjunctive

Note: Though it might seem counter-intuitive, the conditional mood does not indicate the condition, but rather the result.

Por ejemplo …

Si tuviera dinero, iría contigo.		If I had money, I would go with you.
Iría contigo si tuviera dinero.		I would go with you if I had money.
(I don’t have any money so I can’t go, but if I did [unlikely], I would be able to.)

Si fueras con nosotros, podrías ver a tu hermano.		If you went with us, you could see your brother.
Podrías ver a tu hermano si fueras con nosotros.		You could see your brother if you went with us.
(You say you don’t want to go with us, so you won’t see your brother, but if you did go with us [unlikely], you would see him.)
