USING PASSIVE
IN INTERROGATIVES
Active bir soruyu, passive bir soruya
dönüştürürken yine aynı kurallar geçerlidir.
Active : Is Jack washing the car now?
Active : Does
Jack wash the car every day?
Passive : Is the car washed by
Jack every day?
Active : When does
Jack usually wash the car?
Passive : When is the car usually washed?
"Who" ile sorulan
sorularda dikkatli olunuz. Eğer "who", eylemi yapan kişiyi (agent) soruyorsa
"Who
.................. by?" soru biçimini kullanmamız gerekir.
Active : Who discovered America ?
Passive : Who wasAmerica discovered by?
Passive : Who was
(By whom was America
discovered?)
Active : Who
founded the Republic
of Turkey ?
Passive : Who was theRepublic of Turkey founded by?
Passive : Who was the
(By whom was the Republic of Turkey
founded?)
"Who" nesne
durumundaki kişiyi soruyorsa "by" kullanılmaz. Ancak, nesneye ait bir
preposition
varsa, o
kullanılır.
Active : Who
will you invite to your party?
Passive :
Who will be invited to your party?
Active : Who
did you see him with?
Passive :
Who was he seen with? (With
whom was he seen?)
Active : Who
are you going to borrow money from?
Passive :
Who is money going to be borrowed from? (From whom is money going to be borrowed?)
Active : Who
did he lend his car to?
Passive :
Who was his car lent to? (To whom was his car lent?)
"What" bir cümlede
nesneyi sorar. Yani, "what"
ile
sorulmuş bir soruda, nesne yoktur. Bu durumda, cümleyi passive yaparken, özne
durumuna getirebileceğimiz bir sözcük yok demektir. Böyle bir cümleyi şu
şekilde passive yaparız:
Active : What are they doing about the case?
Passive :
What is being
done about the case?
Active : What did they do about the case?
Passive :
What
was done about the case?
Active : What have they done about the case?
Passive :
What
has been done about the
case?
(NOTE: Passive cümlede "What"dan sonra gelen fiiller tekildir.)
