adjective

无人称的，被动的.

(Celtic linguistics, of a verb form) Used with no subject, indicating an unknown or unspecified agent; used in similar situations as the passive in English (the difference being that the theme in the English passive construction is the subject, while in the Celtic autonomous construction the theme is the object and there is no subject).

Examples :

"The house was painted, with no mention of who did the painting. This autonomous construction in the sentence highlights the act of painting, but not the specific person or people responsible. "
房子被刷了，但没有提及是谁刷的。这句话中这种无人称被动结构强调了刷漆这个动作，而不是具体负责刷漆的人。
