Voz Passiva

The passive voice in English is formed in the same way as in Portuguese, using the auxiliary verb "to be" and the past participle of the main verb. The verb "to be" is used in the same tense and mood as the main verb in the active voice, and only the past participle of the main verb is used. In the passive voice, the subject of the active voice becomes the agent and the direct object becomes the subject.
