Fra passiv til aktiv stemme

Setninger skrevet i aktiv stemme kan forstås lettere enn de som er skrevet i passiv stemme. Å bytte fra den passive stemmen til den aktive er ganske enkelt, men det krever litt øving. I samsvarstabellen nedenfor, legg merke til at verbet to be i den passive stemmen har alltid samme tempus som hovedverbet i den aktive stemmen. For å kunne bruke den aktive stemmen, må du gjøre handlingens subjekt eksplisitt.
