The document discusses the passive voice in Spanish. It explains that the passive voice uses the auxiliary verb "to be" and the past participle of the main verb. It provides examples of forming the passive voice for various tenses, including the present, past, future, and with modal verbs. It also explains that in the passive voice, the direct object of the active sentence becomes the subject, and the original subject becomes an agent introduced by the preposition "by".
