PARTS OF A BOOK
What is a book's FRONT MATTER? Front matter is the information that appears up front and first in a book. The front matter contains the nuts and bolts of the book’s publication—information like title, author, publisher, ISBN and Library Congress data. The front matter pages generally aren’t visibly numbered; when they are, the numbers appear as Roman numerals.
Here are the typical parts of a book's front matter:
Half title, sometimes called bastard title — is just the title of the book (you can think of it as a kind of half the title page) Frontispice — is the piece of artwork on the left (“verso”) side of the page opposite the title page on the right (“recto”) side. Title page – this is a page which contains the title of the book, the author (or authors) and the publisher. Copyright page — includes:
the declaration of copyright (that is, who owns the copyright, generally the authors)
other types of credits, such as illustrators, editorial staff, indexer, etc., and sometimes notes from the publishers
copyright acknowledgments — for books that contain reprinted material that requires permissions, such as excerpts, song lyrics
edition number — this number represents the number of the edition and of the printing. Some books will specifically note “First Edition”; others don’t declare that they are first editions, and instead is represent their printings with a number. In those cases, a first edition would look like:
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
A second edition would be noted as: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2
Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data – which includes information such as title, authors, ISBN, Library of Congress number, subject matter, year of publication.
Dedication — where the author honors an individual or individuals by declaring that the labor of the book is “To” [name or names] Acknowledgements — the author’s thanks to those who contributed time and resources towards the effort of writing the book. Table of Contents — outlines what is in each chapter of the book. Foreword — is a “set up” for the book, typically written by someone other than the author. Preface or Introduction — is a “set up” for the book’s contents, generally by the author.
ISBN
ISBN – International Standard Book Number precisely identifies a book, there should be no two books with the same number. The following publishing of the same book has a new number ISBN.
The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is a unique numeric commercial book identifier based upon the 9-digit Standard Book Numbering (SBN) code created by Gordon Foster, Emeritus Professor of Statistics at Trinity College, Dublin, for the booksellers and stationers.
The 10-digit ISBN format was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and was published in 1970 as international standard ISO 2108.
Since 1 January 2007, ISBNs have contained 13 digits, a format that is compatible with "Bookland" European Article Number EAN-13s.
An ISBN is assigned to each edition and variation (except reprintings) of a book. For example, an ebook, a paperback, and a hardcover edition of the same book would each have a different ISBN. The ISBN is 13 digits long if assigned on or after 1 January 2007, and 10 digits long if assigned before 2007.
An International Standard Book Number consists of 4 parts (if it is a 10 digit ISBN) or 5 parts (for a 13 digit ISBN):
The parts of a 10-digit ISBN and the corresponding EAN-13 and barcode.
Note the different check digits in each. The part of the EAN-13 labeled "EAN" is the Bookland country code.
For a 13-digit ISBN, a prefix element - a GS1 prefix: so far 978 or 979 have been made available by GS1,
the registration group element, (language-sharing country group, individual country or territory)
the registrant element,
the publication element,and
a checksum character or check digit.
The 13-digit ISBN separates its parts (prefix element, registration group, registrant, publication and check digit) with either a hyphen or a space. Other than the prefix and the check digit, no part of the ISBN has a fixed number of digits.
The 10-digit ISBN also separated its parts (registration group, registrant, publication and check digit) with either a hyphen or a space.
ISBNs are issued by the ISBN registration agency. In Slovakia it is the National Agency ISBN in Martin.
What is a book's BODY MATTER?
Body matter is the core contents of the book— often divided into segments:
Parts
Sections
Chapters
The body matter is numbered with Arabic numerals beginning with the number “1” on the first page of the first chapter.
Art program — anything that isn’t text (photographs, illustrations, tables, graphs, etc.) is considered to be part of the book’s art program. The art program might be integrated into each page or appear all together within a separate “signature” somewhere in the book.
In non-fiction literature there there could be:
marginálie – marginalia
poznámky pod čiarou – footnotes
záhlavie- header, heading
What is a book's END MATTER? End matter is the materials at the back of the book, generally optional.
Glossary — Bibliography – most often seen in non-fiction like biography or in academic books,
a bibliography lists the reference sources used in researching the book. Index – the index is placed at the end of the book, and lists all the major references in the book (such as major topics, mentions of key people in the book, etc.) and their specific, corresponding page numbers. Publishing imprint: publishing and printing data: author(s), title, publisher, edition, printing house where a book was printed, circulation, number of publisher’s sheets, number of author’s sheets, production number
Errata (sg. erratum) – publishers issue an erratum for a production error
Printing
Printing was another Chinese invention in the ninth century AD. The first known book not written by hand was printed in what is now China, from engraved wooden blocks.
Because Chinese writing was in the form of a very large number of pictographs, moveable type was of little advantage. However such cast type did appear in Korea before developing quite independently in Europe.
Johannes Gutenberg's printing
A major advance in the West was Johannes Gutenberg's printing from cast metal type (c.1450 AD), still hand composed on a mostly wooden press.
The next great change was slow to arrive, being the metal printing press developed by Lord Charles Stanhope in 1803. This still relied on human power to operate, however.
A steam-powered press invented by the German Friedrich Koenig followed in 1810.
An American, Richard Hoe, invented the faster rotary press in 1846.
Printing raced further ahead when the mechanical composition of type was perfected in 1886 with the Linotype compositor.
Lithography was long used to print pictures for books.
From this method came the idea for offset printing, and the first offset press appeared in 1904.
In offset printing the method of "relief" printing from cast metal type, traditional since Gutenberg, is replaced by a smooth photographic plate. By 1980 offset printing was taking over from the older method in many countries.
That was only the beginning of the modern printing revolution. From 1968 computers became involved in printing (the Linotron). In 1983 the offset plate progressed to a format involving the laser-beam transference of stored digital information. Gradually, printing world-wide became a digital and computerized process, and mechanical printing began to disappear.
The Digital Revolution
It was only a matter of time that books could exist in a purely electronic form.
Digital books could be updated, be searchable electronically, include sounds & video and even a dictionary, and interact directly with the new Internet, and therefore contain instant links to further information.
E-Book
The electronic book or e-book (also spelt ebook and eBook) began in the last years of the twentieth century, existing as virtually stored in a digital file.
The book is one of humanity's most enduring cultural artifacts and treasures. The ability to read and write is our greatest tool in education, the most important medium for the transmission of ideas and the human culture.
Why should we continue to value, preserve, read and write books?
books record our past and progress
contain our experiments, knowledge, and accumulated wisdom
proclaim our fears and ideas
champion our ideals, dreams, and hopes for the future
carry the heart and soul of our civilization forward, and keep it accessible. Long live the book.
Johannes Gutenberg (1398-1468)

Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press - the most important invention in modern times.
Without books and computers we wouldn't be able to learn, to pass on information, or to share scientific discoveries. Prior to(before) Gutenberg invented the printing press, making a book was a hard process. It wasn't that hard to write a letter to one person by hand, but to create thousands of books for many people to read was nearly impossible. Without the printing press we wouldn't have had the Scientific Revolution or the Rennaisance. Our world would be very different.
He was born in Mainz, Germany around the year 1398. He was the son of a goldsmith. We do not know much about his childhood. He moved a few times around Germany, but that's all we know for sure.
Inventions
Gutenberg took some existing technologies and some of his own inventions to invent the printing press in the year 1450. One key idea he came up with was moveable type. Rather than use wooden blocks to press ink onto paper, Gutenberg used moveable metal pieces to quickly create pages. He made innovations all the way through the printing process enabling pages to be printed faster. His presses could print thousands of pages per day vs. 40-50 with the old method. This was a dramatic improvement an allowed books to be acquired by the middle class and spread knowledge and education like never before. The invention of the printing press spread rapidly throughout Europe and soon thousands of books were being printed using printing presses.
Among his many contributions to printing are:
- The invention of a process for mass-producing movable type;
- The use of oil-based ink for printing books (farba na olejovom základe)
- Adjustable moulds (nastaviteľné formy)
- Mechanical movable type (mechanická pohyblivá sadzba)
- The use of a wooden printing press similar to the agricultural screw presses (skrutkový lis) of the period
Combination of these elements into a practical system allowed the mass production of printed books.
Gutenberg's method for making type is traditionally considered to have included a type metal alloy (sadzba zhotovená zo zliatiny kovov) and a hand mould (ručná forma) for casting type (odlievanie sadzby). The alloy (zliatina) was a mixture of lead (olova), tin (cínu), and antimony (antimónu) that melted (tavila sa) at a relatively low temperature for faster and more economical casting (odlievanie), cast well (dobre sa odlieval), and created a durable type (a vytvoril trvácnu sadzbu).
First printed books
It is thought that the first printed item using the press was a German poem. Other prints included Latin Grammars and indulgences for the Catholic Church. His real fame came from producing the Gutenberg Bible. It was the first time a Bible was mass-produced and available for anyone outside the church. Bibles were rare and could take up to a year for a priest to transcribe. Gutenberg printed around 200 of these in a relatively short time.

The original Bible was sold for 30 florins. This was a lot of money back then for a commoner, but much, much cheaper than a hand-written version.
There are about 21 complete copies of Gutenberg Bible existing today. One copy is worth about 30 million dollars.

Use
In British English, the use of Simple Past and Present Perfect is quite strict. As soon as a time expression in the past is given, you have to use Simple Past. If there are no signal words, you must decide if we just talk about an action in the past or if its consequence in the present is important.
Note that the following explanations and exercises refer to British English only. In American English, you can normally use Simple Past instead of Present Perfect. We cannot accept this in our exercises, however, as this would lead to confusions amongst those who have to learn the differences.
Certain time in the past or just / already / yet?
Do you want to express that an action happened at a certain time in the past (even if it was just a few seconds ago) or that an action has just / already / not yet happened?
Simple Past |
Present Perfect Simple |
certain time in the past
- Example:
- I phoned Mary 2 minutes ago.
|
just / already / not yet
- Example:
- I have just phoned Mary.
|
Certain event in the past or how often so far?
Do you want to express when a certain action took place or whether / how often an action has happened till now?
Simple Past |
Present Perfect Simple |
certain event in the past
- Example:
- He went to Canada last summer.
|
whether / how often till now
- Example:
- Have you ever been to Canada? / I have been to Canada twice.
|
Emphasis on action or result?
Do you just want to express what happened in the past? Or do you want to emphasise the result (a past action's consequence in the present)?
Simple Past |
Present Perfect Simple |
Emphasis on action
- Example:
- I bought a new bike. (just telling what I did in the past.)
|
Emphasis on result
- Example:
- I have bought a new bike. (With this sentence I actually want to express that I have a new bike now.)

COLOUR THEORY:
Whatever is used in the way of technical aids or colour classification systems must be aligned with
- the colour perception of the eye of the human observer
- and in the range of spectrum of electromagnetic waves visible to the human eye.
Both additive and substractive colour mixing processes occur in modern reproduction theory.

Colour psychology
By using color psychology, you can send:
- a positive or negative message
- encourage sales
- calm a crowd
The latest colour psychology is focused on marketing, particularly:
- in logo design
- web site design
- the cover of a book
- the package of a product.
NOTE:
This information will help you decided what colors to use in your marketing projects.
Also remember for the World Wide Web, that different cultures have differing views on the meaning of color.
Black
Black is the color of authority and power, stability and strength. It is also the color associated with intelligence (doctorate in black robe). Black clothes make people appear thinner. In the western hemisphere black is associated with grieving.
White
For most of the world this is the colour associated with purity (wedding dresses); cleanliness (doctors in white coats) and the safety of bright light.
White is also associated with creativity (white boards, blank slates). It is a compression of all the colors in the color spectrum.
Gray
Gray is most associated with the practical things in life. Some shades of gray are associated with old age, death, taxes, depression or a lost sense of direction but gray is often associated with giving a helping hand, strong character
Red
Red is the colour of energy. It's associated with movement and excitement.
Red is the symbol of life and, for this reason, it's the colour worn by brides in China. Red is used at holidays that are about love and giving (red roses, Valentines hearts, Christmas, etc.)
Blue
Seeing the colour blue actually causes the body to produce chemicals that are calming; but that isn't true of all shades of blue. Over the ages blue has become associated with wisdom and loyalty (note how many uniforms are blue). People tend to be more productive in a blue room.
Green
The colour of growth, nature, and money. A calming colour also that's very pleasing to the senses. It is also the colour associated with envy, good luck, generosity and fertility.
Yellow
Cheerful yellow is the colour of the sun, associated with laughter, happiness and good times. It has the power to speed up our metabolism and bring out some creative thoughts. Some shades of yellow are associated with cowardice; but the more golden shades with the promise of better times.
Orange
It's the colour associated with funny times, happy and energetic days, warmth and organic products. It is also associated with ambition.
Purple
most royal colour that is associated with wealth, prosperity, rich sophistication. This colour stimulates the brain activity used in problem solving.
Brown
This colour is most associated with reliability, stability, and friendship and with things being natural or organic. In India it is the colour of mourning.
2D and 3D GRAPHICS
GRAPHICS
There is a basic difference between pixel and vector graphics.
2D Graphics
Pixel graphics use a grid or screen of small square picture elements (pixels) for displaying graphics (bitmaps). Each pixel has a particular position and a particular colour value. Because the total number of pixels is always the same, the resolution is reduced if the image is enlarged and the image then often looks jagged, not so sharp. Pixel graphics are created in drawing programs such as Microsoft Paint, MacPaint, Photoshop.
Vector graphics are created from mathematically defined lines (vectors) and curves (exclusively Bézier curves that can be processed in PostScript). Vectors draw pictures on the basis of their geometrical characteristics. Vector graphics are always suitable for showing sharp contour and details.
Well known vector graphic programmes are Macromedia Freehand, Adobe Illustrator, and CorelDraw.
Exchanged formats for vector graphics are, for example, EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), WMF (Windows MetaFile) and MacPICT. These formats are metafiles, that is, they can contain vectors as well as bitmaps.
Note: HTML does not support vector data, so that all vector graphics must be changed into pixel format.
JPEG is preferred on the Internet for contone images (photos.)
2D computer graphics
are mainly used in applications that were originally developed upon traditional printing and drawing technologies, such as typography, cartography, technical drawing, advertising, etc. The two-dimensional image is not just a representation of a real/world object. The 2D computer graphics give more direct control of the image than 3D computer graphics.
2D graphics models may combine:
· geometric models (also called vector graphics),
· digital images (also called raster graphics),
· text to be typeset ( defined by content, font style and size, colour, position, and orientation)
· mathematical functions and equations, and more.
These components can be modified and manipulated by two-dimensional geometric transformation such as translation,
rotation, scaling.
2D graphics software
MacDraw(Macintosh), Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, free editors or drawing programs are e.g. xfig or Inkscape.
There are also many 2D graphics editors specialized for certain types of drawings such as electrical, electronic diagrams, topographic maps, computer fonts, etc.
3D computer graphics
use a three dimensional representation of geometric data that is stored in the computer for the purposes of performing calculations and rendering 2D images.
In computer graphics software, the difference between 2D and 3D is blurred; 2D applications may use 3D techniques to achieve effects such as lighting, and 3D may use 2D rendering techniques. (Rendering means the generation of pictures from digitally available scenes.)
ANIMATION
ANIMATION concerns the artificial generation by computer of objects in scenes.
The chronological course of the scene is determined by:
· the sequence of movements
· the viewer position
· the line of vision
The sequence is predetermined and cannot be changed by the viewer.
Animation uses 3D visualizing technology and proceeds via extensive rendering processes back to series of halftone images, which, depending on quality, can achieve displays almost in photographic quality. FLASH is used frequently for animation.
Rendering means the generation of pictures from digitally available scenes.
VIDEO
By VIDEO we mean the recording of chronologically arranged sequences of pixel images.
The resolution and the number of images per second are determining factors for the amount of data.
Digital formats are playing an increasing role in recording and transmission. All videos that are distributed via the Internet are digital. Examples are the Coding Standards Motion JPEG and MPEG.
MPEG also allows the coding of a synchronized audio signal in addition to the video, i.e. picture and sound sequences.
By SOUND/AUDIO we mean changes in pressure in gases, liquids or solids.
In order to record acoustic signals, the sound signal is converted into an electrical signal, e.g. by microphone. If a signal is needed in a digital form, the acoustic/electric signals are scanned.
You are learning the program for producing videos – PremiérPRO.
VIRTUAL REALITY
If one combines data of animations and adds an interactive component, e.g. joystick, 3D mouse, headset, or data glove, then one enters into virtual reality.
On hardware side, it requires sophisticated projection or display technologies as well as the possibility to change the position and the viewing angle using a suitable tracking system.
The variety of projecton technologies ranges from data helmets to projection rooms called CAVEs (CAVE = Cave Automated Virtual Environment).
The basis for the necessary software is 3D visualization technology.
The calculations for VR must be carried out in real time, that is, at the same time as it is displayed.
MAKING A GOOD LAYOUT
A Good Layout:
- works (helps a reader quickly and easily understand a message)
- is well-organized (shows what comes first, second, third, etc.)
- is attractive (grabs a reader’s attention) to effectively communicate a message.
-
The Elements of Design
Knowing what the basic elements of design are and how to use them will help you make the right choices to create a good layout:
- LINE – any mark connecting any points
- SHAPE – anything that has height and width
- TEXTURE – the look or feel of a surface
- SPACE – the distance or area between or around things
- SIZE – how big or small something is
- VALUE – the darkness or lightness of an area
- COLOUR – the ultimate (neprekonateľný, vrcholný) tool for symbolic communication
Basic Principles of Design and Layout
How to organize:
- Use different sizes of type. (e. g. headlines are bigger than subheads)
- Put colours behind an important area of information.
- Use rules to separate information into groups.
- Change the weight of the type. (e. g. semi-bold stands out, but bold really stands out)
- Leave white area around information.
- Pick the best location. (e. g. the upper left corner is usually read first)
- Put pictures next to important copy. (e. g. they attract the eye and reinforce(posilniť, support) the message)
- Put type (písmo) in a box or give it an interesting shape.
- Call out items by putting bullets on front of them.
- Use different coloured or reversed type to separate and emphasize.
How to attract:
- Enlarge a photo of something small.
- Surround a very small picture with a lot of open space.
- Choose bright colour when the piece will be viewed in a grey environment, such as a text-heavy magazine.
- Use a solid black area or a large white area for a newspaper ad.
- Crop an image in an unusual way. (e. g. show an eye, not a whole face)
- Use very large type for a thought-provoking or humorous headline.
- Make the piece a different size and shape from other similar pieces.
- Choose a paper with an interesting, noticeable texture or colour.
- Set important information in an atypical way, e.g. set a headline on a curve or try a script font or face).

Johannes Gutenberg (1398-1468)
Johannes Guttenberg invented the printing press - the most important invention in modern times.
Without books and computers we wouldn't be able to learn, to pass on information, or to share scientific discoveries. Prior to Gutenberg invented the printing press, making a book was a hard process. It wasn't that hard to write a letter to one person by hand, but to create thousands of books for many people to read was nearly impossible. Without the printing press we wouldn't have had the Scientific Revolution or the Rennaisance. Our world would be very different.
He was born in Mainz, Germany around the year 1398. He was the son of a goldsmith. We do not know much about his childhood. He moved a few times around Germany, but that's all we know for sure.
Inventions
Gutenberg took some existing technologies and some of his own inventions to invent the printing press in the year 1450. One key idea he came up with was moveable type. Rather than use wooden blocks to press ink onto paper, Gutenberg used moveable metal pieces to quickly create pages. He made innovations all the way through the printing process enabling pages to be printed faster. His presses could print thousands of pages per day vs. 40-50 with the old method. This was a dramatic improvement and allowed books to be acquired by the middle class and spread knowledge and education like never before. The invention of the printing press spread rapidly throughout Europe and soon thousands of books were being printed using printing presses.
Among his many contributions to printing are:
- The invention of a process for mass-producing movable type;
- The use of oil-based ink for printing books (farba na olejovom základe)
- Adjustable moulds (nastaviteľné formy)
- Mechanical movable type (mechanická pohyblivá sadzba)
- The use of a wooden printing press similar to the agricultural screw presses (skrutkový lis) of the period
Combination of these elements into a practical system allowed the mass production of printed books.
Gutenberg's method for making type is traditionally considered to have included a type metal alloy (sadzba zhotovená zo zliatiny kovov) and a hand mould (ručná forma) for casting type (odlievanie sadzby). The alloy (zliatina) was a mixture of lead (olova), tin (cínu), and antimony (antimónu) that melted (tavila sa) at a relatively low temperature for faster and more economical casting (odlievanie), cast well (dobre sa odlieval), and created a durable type (a vytvoril trvácnu sadzbu)
First printed books
It is thought that the first printed item using the press was a German poem. Other prints included Latin Grammars and indulgences for the Catholic Church. His real fame came from producing the Gutenberg Bible. It was the first time a Bible was mass-produced and available for anyone outside the church. Bibles were rare and could take up to a year for a priest to transcribe. Gutenberg printed around 200 of these in a relatively short time.

The original Bible was sold for 30 florins. This was a lot of money back then for a commoner, but much, much cheaper than a hand-written version.
There are about 21 complete copies of Gutenberg Bible existing today. One copy is worth about 30 million dollars.

WRITING AN ARTICLE
AN ARTICLE is usually written for an English-language magazine or newsletter. The main purpose is to inform, interest and engage the reader, so there should be some opinion or comment.
Hints
-
Add a short title to catch the reader's attention. Make sure it is relevant. You can use the one in the question or invent one of your own.
-
Introduce the topic. Although you don't know the readers personally, you can address them directly and ask them a rhetorical question. It helps to involve them.
-
Divide your report into sections according to the input. One or two paragraphs will do.
-
Develop the ideas in the task input. Remember .
-
Use a personal or more neutral style, but not formal (you might use contractions).
-
It is important that you show a range of structures.
-
Give examples where appropriate to bring your article to life
-
Use humour where appropriate.
-
Give a conclusion and summary in the last paragraph.
-
-
Useful language for an article
Involving the reader
If the answer is ..., you should.... What would live be like if..
Making the article lively and interesting
-
I was absolutely terrified when I realised... More importantly, it was something I...Not surprisingly, it's a good way of raising money. The tent was worryingly small for three people! It was the most amazing experience I have ever had

Article – Model question 1
A charity event to remember
What is the most unusual way you've raised money for charity? How did you do it? What did you have to do? Was the event a success? Would you do it again?
Write us an article answering these questions.
We will publish the best articles on our website.
Write your article in 140-190 words in an appropriate style.
Article - Model answer 1
A charity event to remember
So why did I decide to do a 90-km walk in six days along the Great Wall of China? Well, the reason was that our local children's hospital needed to raise money or it would be close. However, I didn't realise how big a challenge it would be.
Before I went, I thought that I would be walking along a flat surface but when I saw the Great Wall, my heart sank. Part of the time we would be trekking up hundreds of high steps and, worryingly, some of the paths had steep falls on either side and there was nowhere to go because we were surrounded by mountains and forests. However, after a while, I started to love the experience. I was in one of the most amazing places on earth and the views were incredible.
In the end, the adventure was a great success. The hospital was delighted because a group of us managed to raise several thousand pounds.
Would I be keen to help the hospital again next year? Yes, but I think I'll try and find an easier challenge next time!

Article - Model answer 2
Life on a desert island
How would you feel about living on a desert island? I can't imagine anything worse! I'd miss a lot of things but most of all, I would miss my home.
My home is a small house on the outskirts of a city. It was built about 50 years ago and has a small garden. In the summer, our country gets very hot but our house is always cool. You'd probably think our house is nothing special, but I have lived there all my life and all my friends live nearby. It's a happy place, where I feel completely safe. Whenever I go away, I look forward to coming back, lying on my bed, reading a book and listening to my brother and sister arguing downstairs!
I love travelling and meeting new people, but if I were on a desert island, I'd be away from the place I love most: my home; and I would hate that. [+/- 160 words]

Lucky winners
What would you do if you won a large sume of money. How would your life change?
Write us an article answering these questions. Give reasons.
We will publish the best articles next month.
Write your article in 140-190 words in an appropriate style.
Article - Model answer 3
Don't throw it all away!
Have you ever dreamt of becoming rich unexpectedly? Just imagine what your life would be like! However, some people who get rich quickly are very careless with their money and end up being poorer than they were before.
That's why I'd be very careful. I wouldn't want a completely different kind of life, so I'd start by putting some of it away, in case everything went wrong - set up a kind of "emergency fund". Then I would buy my hard-working parents a new home. They deserve it because they have always provided me with everything I've always wanted, even if it meant they had to go without. I would also give some money away to needy people who are struggling in the world and have no food. It would not be right to just spend the money on myself. Then I think I would take a year off from studying and travel round the world in great comfort. I've spent most of my live travelling on a limited budget and sleeping in hostels.
After that, who knows? I'll see, but I certainly won't be buying any luxury cars

PASSIVE
Trpný rod je v angličtine veľmi používanou súčasťou gramatiky. Na začiatok je nutné povedať, že trpný rod je v anglickom jazykuoveľa viac používaný v porovnaní so slovenčinou. Do určitej miery to súvisí s nedostatkom koncoviek u anglických podstatných a prídavných mien a s ustáleným slovosledom anglickej vety. Pretože platí, že podmet môže byť vo vete iba pred slovesom, bolo potrebné vytvorenie štruktúry, ktorou je práve trpný rod. Pomocou neho sa zmení na podmet ľubovoľné podstatné meno, ktoré je vo vete s činným rodom predmetom.
V angličtine, v jednoduchej oznamovacej vete sa na prvom mieste vždy nachádza podmet (na rozdiel od slovenčiny, kde podmet môže byť aj na inom mieste – “Na druhom mieste sa umiestnil môj brat“, alebo môže byť dokonca aj nevyjadrený -“Prší.“) . Napríklad: “It (podmet) is raining.” / “The car (podmet) is green.” / “My mother (podmet) worked in the office.”
Pokiaľ tento podmet vykonáva nejakú činnosť, hovoríme, že sloveso je v činnom rode. Naopak, keď podmet prijíma činnosť, sloveso je v trpnom rode.
Máme pred sebou dvojicu viet:
- ČINNÝ ROD: Lisa rozbila okno. = Lisa broke the window.
- TRPNÝ ROD: Okno rozbila Lisa. = The window was broken by Lisa.
- Ak podmet vety (osoba) vykonáva dej vyjadrený slovesom, používame činný rod. PODMET (= Lisa) vykoná istú činnosť (= BROKE THE WINDOW). PODMET činného rodu JE činiteľ deja (niečo vykonáva).
- V trpnom rode PODMET nevykonáva žiadnu činnosť. PODMET trpného rodu NIE JE činiteľ deja (na podmete je činnosť vyjadrená slovesom vykonávaná, no nie podmet sám ju vykonáva). V trpnom rode hovoríme, čo sa PODMETU stalo, prihodilo.
|
Základná stavba trpného rodu

Trpný rod tvoríme tak, že sloveso BE dáme do správneho času, podľa toho, čo chceme, aby veta vyjadrovala (napr. BE v minulom čas WAS, BE v prítomnom čase IS / ARE apod.) + (akékoľvek) sloveso v minulom príčastí (done / written / made).

- A lot of people have been employed.
- Nobody was injured in the accident.
- The hotel was built in 2005.
- The house is being cleaned at the moment.
- Somebody was behind me. I was being followed.
- America was discovered in …
- He will be brought up by his uncle.
OTÁZKA / ZÁPOR
OTÁZKU tvoríme ako u samostatného slovesa TO BE – obrátením slovosledu medzi podmetom a tvarom slovesa.
-
- When was the hotel built? (NIE!
When was built the hotel?)
ZÁPOR tvoríme ako u samostatného slovesa TO BE – pridaním NOT k slovu TO BE.
-
- The hotel was not built in 2005.
- The house isn’t being cleaned now.
Utvorme si spoločne jednu ukážkovú vetu v trpnom rode krok za krokom:

SLOVESO je clean. / PREDMET je my car.
PREDMET činného rodu (my car) sa stáva PODMETOM trpného rodu.
Ďalej potrebujeme sloveso BE v takom čase, v akom čase je sloveso v činnom rode. SLOVESO cleaned je v minulom čase, takže BE dáme do minulého času.
Nasledovne potrebujeme minulé príčastie slovesa, ktoré máme vo vete činného rodu.V našom prípade je to sloveso CLEAN a jeho minulé príčastie je CLEANED.
Následne už len stačí dokončiť vetu.
-
- My car was cleaned 2 days ago.
Použitie trpného rodu
Dej dôležitejší než činiteľ
Podstatnejší je pre nás dej (čo sa komu prihodilo / stalo) než činiteľ deja (kto niečo urobil).
-
-
- The cake was made.
- My flight has been cancelled.
Činiteľ deja nie je dôležitý
Trpný rod používame vtedy, ak činiteľ deja nie je pre nás dôležitý. Často je z vety zrejmé a jasné, kto týmto činiteľom je.
-
-
- He was expelled out of school. – Bol vylúčený zo školy. (= činiteľ deja – ten, kto žiaka vyhodil – vo vete nie je vyjadrený, pretože je všeobecne jasné a známe, že zo školy vás môže vyhodiť iba riaditeľ)
-
-
- The man was arrested. (= nie je vôbec dôležité, aby sme do vety umiestňovali činiteľa deja, keďže je zrejmé, že ho zatkli policajti)
Činiteľ deja je neznámy / zabudnutný
Trpný rod používame vtedy, ak je činiteľ deja neznámy alebo sa na činiteľa deja zabudlo.
-
-
- The car was stolen. (= činiteľ deja nie je známy)
- At least ten people were killed. (= činiteľ deja je neznámy)
Činiteľa deja zámerne nespomíname
Ak činiteľa deja úmyselne nespomíname, pretože najčastejšie nechceme.
-
-
- I was misled. – Bol som uvedený do omylu. (= úmyselne nechceme povedať, kto bol činiteľ deja, kto nás uviedol do omylu)
Conditional sentences are sometimes confusing for learners of English as a second language.
There are three types of conditional sentences.
