Estructura y usos de la voz pasiva y la voz activa.
English has two voices: active and passive. The active voice is used when the subject of the sentence
does the action. In the example, A is the subject and B is the object.
For example: My mom sings that song. Está oración está escrita en presente simple.
A B
En inglés tenemos dos voces: activa y pasiva. La voz activa es usada cuando el sujeto de la oración
hace la acción. En el ejemplo, A es el sujeto y B es el objeto.
Por ejemplo: Mi mamá canta esa canción.
A B
Hablando en voz activa
En la voz activa es relevante quién hizo qué y ese alguien es responsable de llevar a cabo lo que el
verbo representa, es decir, una acción. Esta voz tiene la siguiente estructura universal:
SUJETO ⇒ VERBO transitivo ⇒ OBJETO
Veamos algunos ejemplos de la voz activa en inglés:
Le Corbusier designed the house in 1952 – Le Corbusier diseñó la casa en 1952.
Selena will present the new project next week – Selena presentará el nuevo proyecto la
próxima semana.
I paid the invoice last week – (Yo) pagué la factura la semana pasada.
Al comparar los ejemplos en inglés con la estructura típica de la voz activa, vemos que hay un sujeto
que ha realizado la acción indicada por el verbo sobre un objeto claramente definido, más
exactamente, alguien hizo algo.
The passive voice is used when we focus on the object of the sentence. In the example, B becomes
the subject. For example: That song is sung by my mom.
B A
La voz pasiva es usada cuando nos enfocamos en el objeto de la oración. En el ejemplo, B se
convierte en el sujeto. Por ejemplo: Esa canción es cantada por mi mamá. Como el objeto es quien
toma el protagonismo, debemos ser cuidadosos en lo siguiente. La oración viene dada en presente
simple (recuerda que son acciones hechas de manera frecuente, donde le agregamos una s,es, ies a
los verbos de las terceras personas que son he, she e it. Los demás pronombres personales usan el
verbo sin agregarle nada. La oración sufre una transformación así:
My mom sings a song. Simple present. Hay un sujeto, ella. Para transformar la oración usamos is,
porque es la conjugación correspondiente para ella con el verbo to be (she is). Ahora, el verbo que
tenemos en presente, en este caso sing, lo conjugamos en su forma de participio. Así: sing está en

DANE 215232000020
presente, el pasado es sung. Para lograr decir que esa canción es cantada por, y en ese
por usamos by. Es importante el empleo del by(por) para hacer referencia de quien realiza la acción.
Cuando hay varios sujetos, por ejemplo: They write a beatiful letters. Ellos escriben unas cartas
bonitas. En este caso la oración está en voz activa, porque conocemos que ellos hacen una acción
concreta.
Ahora vamos a formar la voz pasiva. Buscamos el objeto, en este caso es a beautiful letters (unas
cartas bonitas). El sujeto es ellos, y como ellos está en plural, la conjugación en el verbo to be es ARE.
(they are). El pasado participio del verbo write es written. Teniendo estos datos, la oración queda de la
siguiente manera: A BEAUTIFUL LETTERS ARE WRITTEN BY THEM. La razón de usar them es
porque al conocer el sujeto (they) en la voz pasiva pasa a ser sujeto objeto, lo cambiamos por su
pronombre objeto que es them. Mira: cuando identifiques el sujeto en la voz activa, haces uso de esta
información para la voz pasiva.
I … me. I buy lots of candies. Compro muchos dulces (voz activa). Lots of candies are bought for me.
Muchos dulces son comprados por mi.(voz pasiva)
You … you. You drive a car. Tú manejas un carro (voz activa). A car is driven by you. Un carro es
manejado por ti. (voz pasiva)
He … him. He teaches a lesson. Él enseña una lección (voz activa). A lesson is taught for him. Una
lección es enseñada por él.
She … her. She reads a book. Ella lee un libro (voz activa). A book is read by her. Un libro es leído por
ella. (voz pasiva)
It … it. It catches the ball. Él(puede ser un perro) atrapa la pelota. (voz activa). A ball is caught by it.
Una pelota es atrapada por él. (voz pasiva)
We … us. We play the piano. Nosotros tocamos el piano. (voz activa). The piano is played por us. El
piano es tocado por nosotros. (voz pasiva)
They … them. They build a castle. Ellos construyen un castillo. (Voz activa). A castle is built for them.
Un castillo es construido por ellos. (voz pasiva)

Funciones de la voz pasiva
La voz pasiva se utiliza para mostrar interés por la persona o cosa que es objeto de una acción, en
lugar de la persona o cosa que realiza dicha acción. Dicho de otro modo, la persona o cosa más
importante pasa a ser el sujeto de la oración.

Ejemplos
The passive voice is used frequently. (= nos interesa la voz pasiva, no quién la usa.)
The house was built in 1654. (= nos interesa la casa, no quién la construyó.)
The road is being repaired. (= nos interesa la carretera, no quién la está arreglando.)
En ocasiones empleamos la voz pasiva porque desconocemos o no queremos mencionar quién realizó
la acción.
Ejemplos
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!
La voz pasiva suele utilizarse en textos formales. Cambiar a la voz activa hará que lo que escribes
resulte más claro y fácil de leer.
Pasiva Activa
A great deal of meaning is conveyed by a few well-
chosen words.
A few well-chosen words convey a great deal
of meaning.
Our planet is wrapped in a mass of gases. A mass of gases wrap around our planet.
Waste materials are disposed of in a variety of ways.
The city disposes of waste materials in a
variety of ways.
Si queremos decir quién o qué realiza la acción en una construcción en pasiva, empleamos la
preposición "by". Cuando sabemos quién realizó la acción y el sujeto nos interesa, siempre es mejor
optar por la voz activa.
Pasiva Activa
"A Hard Day's Night" was written by the Beatles. The Beatles wrote "A Hard Day's Night".

A COLD DAY
It was a frigid January day in York, Pennsylvania. The temperature was
below freezing. Snow was starting to fall. Dr. James turned on the
television to check the weather. He had to leave for his work at the hospital
soon. “Today is going to be very cold,” said the TV weatherman. “Be sure
to wear very warm clothes when you go outside. Also, be careful driving on
the roads. Snowfall will make them slippery. In fact, if you can stay home
today, do it!” Dr. James couldn’t stay home. Very sick people were waiting
to see him at the hospital. He went to his closet. He took out the warmest
clothes he had. He put on a sweater, jacket, gloves, socks, boots and a
hat. He opened his front door to go to work. A gust of cold air blew inside.
“Wow, it is very cold outside,” Dr. James said. He was from Miami and
didn’t like the cold. “The weatherman was right!” Before he could drive to
work, Dr. James had to clearthe snow off his car. He did this very fast. He
hopped in the car. He shivered. His neck felt especially cold. Dr. James
drove slowly to work. Everyone else was driving slowly, too. There was a
lot of traffic on the road. There were cars in front and behind. Suddenly,
the cars in front of Dr. James came to a stop. There had been an accident!
Dr. James hurried from his car to check on the driver of the car that had
swerved off the road. “Is everyone okay?” Dr. James asked. “Yes, yes, we
are fine. We slipped on a patch of ice,” the driver said. “This would have
been a good day to stay home in bed.”
