3. Поскольку Passivevoice употребляется в английском языке гораздо чаще, чем в русском, он может переводиться на русский язык несколькими способами: 1) Кратким страдательным причастием прошедшего времени (с глаголом-связкой “ быть” или без неё). 2) Глаголом на -ся в соответствующем времени и числе. 3) Неопределенно-личным предложением, т.е. без подлежащего, с глаголом в 3-м лице множественного числа. 4) Глаголом в действительном залоге.
4. Некоторые особенности перевода Passivevoice на русский язык. Если глагол–сказуемое, стоящее в страдательном залоге, требует при переводе на русский язык соответствующего предлога, то при переводе подобных глаголов предлог ставится перед словом, являющимся в английском предложении подлежащим.
Предлог, стоящий после глагола в страдательном залоге и не относящийся к следующим за ним словам, при переводе на русский язык ставится перед тем словом, которое в английском предложении является подлежащим:
Сказуемое, стоящее в самом конце предложения без пояснительных слов, следует при переводе ставить перед подлежащим:
5. Особенности перевода фразеологических сочетаний типа takecareofв страдательном залоге. Такие сочетания представляют собой смысловое единство и при переводе обычно передаются или соответствующим глаголом, или эквивалентным сочетанием глагола с существительным. Например, makeanattempt–попытаться, делать попытку payattention– обращать внимание giveattention– уделять внимание make (an) effort – делать усилие, стараться makemention (of) – упоминать о makereference(to) – упоминать, ссылаться на takeaccountof – учитывать, принимать во внимание takecareof – заботится, стараться Когда нужно привлечь внимание к самому действию, выраженному фразеологическим сочетанием, существительное выносится на первый план, а глагол принимает форму страдательного залога. Предложение переводится неопределенно – личным предложением:
Правильный перевод возможен только после того, как будет найдено фразеологическое сочетание и подобран к нему соответствующий русский эквивалент. 6. Предлог by + agent используется для обозначения того. кто произвел действие. Предлог with + instrument or material используется для обозначения того. чем произведено действие.
