Passive voice modals
With modals in the passive voice, we have present and past forms:
Present tense forms: modal + be +  3
rd
 form of the verb (past participle)
Past tense forms: modal + have been + 3
rd
 form of the verb (past participle)
Let’s look at some examples of the passive with modal verbs in the present tense:
