Using 'bli'-passive for dynamic actions. This builds on the s-passive knowledge.

    Bli is for 'happening right now' events; S is for 'how things are' or formal writing.

نکات و ترفندها (4)

💡

Check the tense

Ensure 'bli' is in the correct tense (blir, blev, har blivit).

🎯

The 'R' Rule

When forming the present s-passive, always delete the '-r' from the present tense first. 'Skriver' -> 'Skrivs'. If you keep the 'r', you'll sound like you're speaking an old dialect!

💡

The 'Av' Rule

Whenever you want to say WHO did the action in a passive sentence, always use 'av'. Example: 'Boken lästes av barnet'.

💡

The 'By' Rule

If you can add 'by zombies' (av zombies) after the verb and it still makes sense, it's a passive construction!

سوالات رایج (6)

Use 'bli' for specific, dynamic actions. Use 's' for general or timeless statements.
No, only include 'av' if the agent is important to the meaning.
Technically yes, but you will sound very informal. In a job application or an essay, you should use the -s form to sound professional.
When you drop the -r, if the stem ends in a consonant, you often keep the vowel -e- for easier pronunciation. So läs-e-r becomes läs-e-s.
The 's-passiv' is more formal and used for general facts or habits. The 'bli-passiv' is more common in speech and describes a specific event or change.
Yes, 'av' is used to introduce the agent (the person doing the action) in both s-passive and bli-passive sentences.
