Study Notes
Passive Voice in Korean
- Passive voice emphasizes the recipient of an action, instead of the actor.
- Active voice describes actions performed by a subject.
- Passive expressions show the opposite, the action is done by others or a force beyond the subject, and the subject becomes the receiver of the action (affected).
- The opposite of passive is active
Active to Passive
- Active voice changes the focus to the object of the action.
- The object becomes the subject in passive voice.
- The actor/doer is usually included, but not always required as part of the passive voice structure.
Passive Marker (-이/히/리/-기) usage
- Used when the object of an active sentence becomes the subject in a passive sentence.
- Used with the verb stem
- Forms passive verb endings
Passive Marker (-아/어/여지다) usage
- Used with the verb stem
Passive examples
- There are different verb endings for passive voice: -(이/히/리/기) and -아/어/여지다.
- One ending is not necessarily better or more frequent than the other.
- The appropriate ending of the verb is determined by context from native speakers.
- Note that sometimes active and passive voicing are more interchangeable.
Passive Voice and Sentences Describing Situations
- Sometimes a situation may take a passive structure.
- Even though a sentence might convey a situation, the structure may employ passive elements still to describe that situation.
