Lo difícil de “passive voice” es la conjugación del verbo [be].

Si el verbo en la oración activa está en presente


simple, el verbo [be] en la oración pasiva también será en presente simple más el “past participle” del verbo
original. Si el verbo en la oración activa está en futuro con “will”, el verbo [be] en la oración pasiva también será en
futuro con “will” más el “past participle” del verbo original.
