Topic 1: Active and Passive voices.

The first topic in the course is the active and passive voice; these are used to represent the same idea but changing the focus between the responsible for an action and the result or the action. If we want to emphasize the action we have to use the passive voice, and this is formed with the verb “to be” in the same time form of the sentence (present, past or future) and adding the participle.

But, if we want to emphasize the responsible or the subject, we use the active voice, and the structure is; the subject + the verb + the complements.
