「とかんがえられている」の情報

In its citation usage, the case marking particle is often used with verbs in the passive form. Two of these regularly occurring verbs are (かんが)えられている 'to be considered', and (おも)われている 'to be thought'.
This grammar point is used after a phrase, and translates as 'it is considered that (A)', or 'it is thought that (A)'. It is generally used to highlight a commonly held opinion that most people agree on (not your personal opinion).
  • 最初(さいしょ)グー」最初(さいしょ)()志村(しむら)けん(かんが)えられている
    Shimura Ken is considered to be the first person who said 'saisho wa gu'. (A phrase said before playing rock, paper, scissors, in Japan)
  • このトンネル日本(にほん)一番(いちばん)(のろ)われているトンネル(おも)われている
    This tunnel is thought to be one of the most cursed tunnels in Japan.
The primary reason that these constructions are used in their displacement (passive) form, is to show that the thought itself is not something that is related to the speaker's own opinions.
However, people will often use this form as a way to strengthen their own opinions, in a similar way to how English speakers would say 'everyone knows that (A)'.
  • カバ世界(せかい)(もっと)(あぶ)動物(どうぶつ)(かんが)えられている
    Everyone knows that hippos are the most dangerous animal in the world.

    There is an informational note in the と考えられる entry indicating that と思られる is more subjective. The notes can be easy to overlook, though, so don’t feel bad if you missed it at first. The verbs also have a bit of a nuance difference to them as well. 思う means basically, “to think,” but is also used more subjectively, so it can also translate as, “to feel.” 考える on the other hand means something more like, “to think over, to consider.” There can be a deeper contemplation implied by 考える over 思う, which suggests a more rational, objective assessment. That being said, both verbs have many senses and a wide range of uses.

    英語はアメリカだけでなく、世界中で使われる言語とかんがえられている
    英語はアメリカだけでなく、世界中で使われる言語だとかんがえられている

    I’m just curious, is there a reason why the だ is optional here? (compared to seemingly similar uses of the と particle I’ve learned before)

    Is that だ logically there regardless in this case or truly optional? Does it shift nuance at all?
