What is the grammatical voice (slovesný rod) of the sentence 'Most bol postavený v minulom roku'?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Passive voice (trpný rod / pasívum)
- Step 1: The sentence uses the compound periphrastic passive constructed with the auxiliary 'byť' + passive participle 'postavený', where the subject is the recipient of action. Answer: Passive voice (trpný rod / pasívum). Why not the others: Active voice would be 'Robotníci postavili most' where the agent performs the action directly.
