Fine as far as it goes, but the whole point/problem of the so-called Passive is that 'to be + PP' in English can be one of two things. 'The door was closed' either means that is how it was, closed; or it means something happened: by forces or persons unknown the door was closed, clunk. The first is no problem: was closed = war geschlossen; if you can see that the other is different, then all you have to do is to remember to use different verb werden to express that. from Lenz, 28 November 2011	(report comment)	3 out of 5
