Passzív kérdő mondatban az alany kapja a cselekvést, ezért a figyelem nem azon van, hogy ki hajtotta végre az eseményt, hanem azon, hogy mi történt az alannyal. A legfontosabb alapképlet: [alany] + be + [befejezett melléknévi igenév], kérdésben azonban a megfelelő segédige az alany elé kerül.
A passzív szerkezet például így működik: The ball was thrown by the pitcher. Ebben a mondatban a labda az alany, és a labdával történt a cselekvés. További példák: I was given a gift yesterday., My apartment was built in 2010., English is spoken in many countries.
A passive voice kérdés alapja
A passzív kérdések képzésekor a be ige vagy egy másik segédige kerül az alany elé, majd az alanyt a főige harmadik alakja követi. A mondat végén kérdőjel áll.
A cselekvő mondatban általában az a fontos, hogy ki hajtotta végre a cselekvést, passzív mondatban viszont az esemény elszenvedője vagy eredménye kerül előtérbe. A cselekvő személyt a by elöljárószóval lehet megadni, de ez gyakran elhagyható.
