PASSIVE VOICE
1.It is said that a sentence is in passive voice when the meaning of the verb is received by the grammatical person to whom it refers:

Te homework was done by CHUY
La tarea fuehecha por CHUY

2. Is formed with the auxiliary verb to be and the past participle of the verb is conjugated.

3. The addition to the active sentence becomes the passive subject. As in Castilian,the subject can be kept active as an agent.

4. When a verb has two plug-ins can make two passive structures:
A book was sat to CHUY by lovely Mrs. ALICIA
Un libro fue enviado a CHUY por lovelyMrs. ALICIA.

The passive voice is formed with the verb to be conjugated plus the participle of main verb. English is much more frequent than in Spanish and usually appears when it isimportant who performs an action but the fact itself. So whenever we see not a passive, we have to translate it literally, since in Spanish sounds more forced. It is only possible to use the passive voice...
