Verb to-be

To describe a process, the verbs used are usually

in the passive form. This is because we are more

interested in the action (process) rather than the

agent (person). As the process involved can be
carried out anywhere at any time at any time, the

present passive is often used.

passive verb in present: 'is/are' + past participle
