The passive voice in Spanish
is formed with a tense of ser and a past participle. Ser should be in the same tense as the verb in its
corresponding active sentence. The agent is expressed by por if the action is physical; and by de if
mental. The past participle agrees in gender and number with the subject. If you use estar instead
of ser, the past participle is called the predicate adjective and it is not a passive sentence.
