Understanding auxiliary verbs in Italian, like "essere" and "avere," can make using the passive voice a bit tricky.

Let’s break it down:

1. Context Matters:

   • Knowing which auxiliary verb to use can be hard because it depends on the verb itself.

2. Agreement is Key:

   • The past participle (which usually ends in -ato, -uto, or -ito) needs to match the subject. This means it changes based on whether the subject is male, female, singular, or plural. That can make things even tougher.

The Good News:
Practicing different examples can really help. With time, you’ll get the hang of it!
