met: Jei jis būtų paklaũsęs mano patarimo, šiandien būtų besimáudąs turtuose. – If he had listened to my advice, today he would be rolling in money. This form is obsolete. Passive voice In Lithuanian passive voice is always analytical and structured differently than the active voice. Passive voice has no perfect and no inchoative tenses, because similar semantic relationships can be expressed by the present / past passive participle dichotomy. Passive voice is always composed of the auxiliary verb būti in its respective tense / person and either a present passive participle or a past passive participle that must match the gender and number of the subject. Sometimes the necessity participle can be used as well. In order to avoid redundancy, the following table only includes the third (masculine) person of singular. {| class="wikitable" |- ! ! ! colspan=1| Present passive ! colspan=1| Past passive |- !rowspan=4|Indicative mood !Present |yra baigiamas |yra baigtas |- !Past |bùvo baĩgiamas |buvo baigtas1 |- !Past iterative |bū́davo baigiamas |būdavo baigtas |- !Future |bùs baigiamas |bus baigtas |- !rowspan=4|Indirect mood !Present |esą̃s baigiamas |esąs baigtas |- !Past |bùvęs baigiamas |buvęs baigtas1 |- !Past iterative |bū́davęs baigiamas |būdavęs baigtas |- !Future |bū́siąs baigiamas |būsiąs baigtas |- !colspan=2|Imperative mood |tebūnie baigiamas |tebūnie baigtas |- !colspan=2|Conditional mood |būtų baigiamas |būtų baigtas |} 1This form for all persons can expressed using the passive (invariable) neuter gender participle bū́ta instead of the active participle bùvęs, usually for intransitive verbs: Prieš tai mes buvome [buvę] apsilankę muziejuje → Prieš tai mūsų būta apsilankyta muziejuje. – Before that we had gone to a museum → Before that it had been gone by us to a museum. This structure is rarely used in modern Lithuanian. The subject of the active voice is converted to the passive voice using its possessive genitive form (hence aš, tu (I, you) converts not into manęs, tavęs, but mano, tavo): Vaikus pagimdei tu, bet užauginau aš → Vaikai buvo tavo pagimdyti, bet mano užauginti. – You gave birth to the children, but I raised them → The children were given birth by you, but raised by me. The possessive adjectives are indeclinable. Passive voice structures with present participle are the passive equivalents of active voice simple tenses: Mokslininkai atranda tolimas planetas → Tolimos planetos yra mokslininkų atrandamos – Scientists discover distant planets → Distant planets are being discovered by scientists. Kaime bijodavo vilkų → Kaime būdavo bijoma vilkų
