Presentation Transcript

  1. The Passive Voice Being Acted Upon……

  2. Learning Target • Understand the difference between the active and passive voices. • Learn to use and understand the passive voice personal endings in the 4 tenses we know so far.

  3. What voice have we learned previously? • The only ‘voice’ we have learned to this point is the __________ voice. • On a small piece of paper, write a sentence in Latin that shows the subject is acting. (Some share with class)

  4. Active VS Passive Voice • A sentence is in the active voice when the verb shows that the subject is acting. • Puella portat. The girl carries. • When the passive voice is being used, the verb shows that the subject is being acted upon. • Puella portatur. The girl is being carried.

  5. Passive Endings – how to recognize the passive voice • -r -mur • -ris -minī • -tur -ntur

  6. Word Stems Remain the Same! • The Passive Voice endings are added to the same stems that were used in Active Voice • There are a few exceptions: any form that ends in –o in the active voice (ex. amo, amabo) • These forms keep the –o ending. The passive –r ending is added after the ‘o’. • amor, amabor • 2nd person singular in several tenses is also an exception. Please mark these exceptions in your conjugating booklet!

  7. Present Passive (1st Conj.) • portor portāmur • portāris portāmini • portātur portāntur

  8. Present Passive – 3rd Conj.Notice the ‘exception’ here! • ponor ponimur • poneris ponimini • ponitur ponuntur

  9. Be Sure to….. Review Charts in Book • Look over, and make notes on, charts in Lesson 27 (pp 188 – 189). Include all of these charts in your notes. • Add passive endings to your verb conjugating booklet for all 4 tenses of each conjugation. NOTE any exceptions!

  10. CAVEAT - Active Progressive Formvs Passive Verb Phrase • Specto – can mean I watch, I do watch or I am watching. ‘I am watching’ is the active progressive form (in English). It uses a form of the ‘to be’ verb as a ‘helper’. Vocabant – ‘they were calling’ is also active progressive (in imperfect tense). What is the ‘helper word’? • In passive voice, we would use the word spector, which means ‘I am being watched’ or vocabatur, which means he was being called. Both use a form of the ‘to be’ verb, but have different functions in a sentence. • Continued…..

  11. Active Progressive vs Passive Verb Phrase, cont. • The use of the ‘to be’ word can create confusion in English • However, it is NOT confusing in Latin. The forms have different endings, so it is very easy to distinguish between the two. • Learn the Passive Personal Endings (on the chart on board!) Also, make charts in your notebook from pp. 188-189

  12. Ticket Out the Door • Using the same small paper, conjugate a verb from the first conjugation in present tense, passive voice, writing the meaning beside each word. Be sure your name is on the paper!
