不条理な暴力によるプレッシャーに晒される
after some searching, I also found these sentences:
絶え間ないプレッシャーにさらされる
来る日も来る日もプレッシャーにさらされる
プレッシャーに晒す, as far as i can tell, you a transitive verb can't take noun+に without a indirect object.
such as "X を/は Y に V-transitive" in general
what is going on in these instances? What is the agent of the passive verb? can pressure itself be the agent?
thank you
Answer
プレッシャーに晒す, as far as i can tell, you a transitive verb can't take noun+に without a indirect object.
In プレッシャーにさらす, プレッシャー is the indirect object. The direct object is left out.
［XXを］プレッシャーにさらす -- active voice
→［XXが］プレッシャーにさらされる -- passive voice
What is the agent of the passive verb? can pressure itself be the agent?
The agent of the さらす is not mentioned, either.
［YYが］［XXを］プレッシャーにさらす -- active voice
→［XXが］［YYによって］プレッシャーにさらされる -- passive voice
