The Present Subjunctive

Realidades 3 p 132

The Subjunctive

So far in Spanish we’ve been using verbs in the indicative mood, which is used to talk about facts or actual events.

Sentences in the indicative mood

Mañana voy al cine.Ayer, comimos pizza.Mi hermano siempre lloraba

cuando íbamos a la escuela. Tú has hecho la tarea ya.

The Subjunctive

Spanish has another mood called the …….

“subjunctive mood”.

The Subjunctive

The Subjunctive mood is made up of personal expressions: with certain verbs that express requests, wants, demands, suggestions, advice.

or Impersonal expressions such as:

“es importante que” “es necesario que”

The Subjunctive

Personal Expressions require the Subjunctive mood when someone wants another person to do something.

The Subjunctive

A sentence that includes the subjunctive form has two parts connected by the word que.

For example:

2 Clauses

Independent clause(stands on its own)Subject > Verb

Separated by the word “que”

Dependent clause (can’t stand on its own)Begins with the word “que.”

Subjunctive Verb

The Subjunctive

Note that the subjunctive sentences have two parts, each with a different subject, connected by the word que:

The Subjunctive

For personal expressions ( when 1 person wants someone or something else to act/happen) The first subject uses the present indicative verb (recommendation, suggestion, want/wish etc…) + que and the second subject uses the present subjunctive verb (what should happen).

The Subjunctive

Common verbs used in personal expressions followed by que + subjunctive:

Querer ( e>ie) Preferir (e > ie) __aconsejar

exigir ___recomendar (e > ie)

Sugerir (e > ie)
