Using noun phrases vs. verb phrases
1/17En algunas oportunidades, podemos expresar una misma idea de dos formas diferentes sin alterar el significado de la misma.
Frases nominales vs. frases verbales
Convirtiendo una oración “Verb phrase” en un “Noun phrase”, nos permite resaltar una acción y darle más formalidad a la misma utilizando sustantivos en lugar de verbos.
Esta acción de convertir verbos en sustantivos es conocida como “Nominalization”.
Para convertir un verbo en un sustantivo, basta con agregarles un determinado sufijo como: “-ion”, “-tion”, “-ness”, “-ment”, “-ity”, “-ry”, “-al”, “-ance”, entre otros.
Veamos algunos ejemplos:
| Verb phrase | Noun phrase |
|---|---|
| We need to expand our business. | Our business needs an expansion |
| Sarah asks you to reproduce these materials. | The reproduction of these materials is needed. |
| We strive to improve our service. | We strive for the improvement of our services. |
| It is important to prepare for any type of crisis. | Preparedness for any type of crisis is important. |
Convertir verbos en sustantivos sin duda ampliará tu vocabulario y las estructuras gramaticales que utilizamos para escribir o para hablar. Poder utilizar nuevas palabras y expresar ideas de manera formal.
