Questions & Answers about Jede Turbine wird mit einem Schiff transportiert werden.
Why does this sentence use both wird and werden?
This is the future passive structure. The first one, wird, is the conjugated auxiliary verb for the future tense. The second one, werden, sits at the end and acts as the passive infinitive. Together with the past participle transportiert, they form the future passive concept translated as will be transported.
What is the rule for the word order of transportiert werden at the end?
In German main clauses, the conjugated verb (wird) is in position two, and all other verb parts go to the very end. For the future passive, the past participle (transportiert) comes first, followed immediately by the passive infinitive (werden).
Could I use von instead of mit to mean by a ship?
In a passive sentence, von is used for the active agent, which is the person or entity intentionally performing the action. Because the ship is considered an instrument or mode of transport rather than the conscious actor, German uses mit followed by the dative case.
Why does jede have an -e ending here?
The word Turbine is a feminine noun, and it is the subject of the sentence in the nominative case. The determiner jeder takes the standard feminine nominative ending, becoming jede.
