  1.   NGỮ PHÁP

 

  1. Cách chuyển sang câu bị động

- Muốn chuyển một câu chủ động sang câu bị động, ta thực hiện như sau:

     + Lấy tân ngữ (O) trong câu chủ động làm chủ ngữ (S) trong câu bị động.

     + Động từ V(A) đổi sang V(P). Chú ý thì của câu luôn không đổi, động từ be phải phù hợp với chủ ngữ và thì của câu.

+ Chủ ngữ S(A) trong câu chủ động trở thành tân ngữ O(P) đứng sau by trong câu bị động. Nếu không cần thiết làm rõ chủ ngữ gây ra hành động thì có thế lược bỏ đi cụm từ by + tân ngữ.
