 PASSIVES SENTENCES 

 

 We usually use the passive when we want to emphasize the action instead of emphasizing the person who carried it out.For example: Yo leo un libro.....El libro es leido por mí.
                                                 <<I read a book......A book is read by me>>

             Voz activa:   The italians    invented     jeans.
                                   Sujeto          Verbo       Objeto
