Si el verbo principal de la oración en forma activa es un "modal verb", se sigue esta estructura para hacer el cambio a voz pasiva: Object + modal verb + To Be + past participle Por ejemplo, la oración activa "I should clean my bedroom" se convierte en "My bedroom should be cleaned".
La "impersonal passive" se usa para hacer afirmaciones generales o expresar algo que varias personas piensan, sin indicar un sujeto conocido, como en español “Se dice que...”.
Para pasar de voz activa a pasiva, el verbo to be se conjuga en el mismo tiempo que el verbo principal de la oración en forma activa. El objeto directo de la oración activa se transforma en el sujeto de la oración pasiva, siguiendo esta fórmula: Direct Object + To Be + past participle + (by) + (subject) Por ejemplo, la frase en voz activa "Someone ate the cake" se transforma en "The cake was eaten" para darle más importancia a la acción que al sujeto.
