Simple past active and passive voice.
Cuando hablamos de voz activa y voz pasiva, nos referimos a la
estructura de frases (orden de las palabras). En las oraciones en voz
activa, lo más importante es el sujeto que realiza una determinada
acción, mientras que en la voz pasiva, es más importante el objeto que
recibe la acción. Para comprender mejor la lengua inglesa, es necesario
conocer los dos tipos de voces y sus respectivas estructuras.
