Subjunctive The subjunctive is a challenging but necessary topic to know in Spanish. All too frequently, the topic of the subjunctive is made far more difficult than is necessary. The subjunctive is not a tense; rather, it is a mood. Tense refers to when an action takes place (past, present, future), while mood merely reflects how the speaker feels about the action. The subjunctive mood is rarely used in English, but it is widely used in Spanish.

Subjunctive Examples Here are some examples of the subjunctive being used in English: The doctor recommends that he take the pills with food. Subjunctive conjugation: he take The law requires that you be 18 years old to vote. Subjunctive conjugation: you be If I were a rich man, I wouldn’t have to work hard. Subjunctive conjugation: I were

Use of Subjunctive Because there must be some uncertainty or subjectivity to warrant the use of the subjunctive, you will usually see it in sentences that contain a main clause which introduces a quality of uncertainty or subjectivity. I hope she will come. I hope = main clause I know she will come. I know = main clause I feel she will come. I feel = main clause. The above examples all have main clauses, but only the first and the third introduce an element of uncertainty or subjectivity.

Notes & Activities On page 226, there is extensive information about the subjunctive tense. Synthesize this information in your notes. You do not need to copy it word-for-word, but you should read everything and make sure each bullet point in the notes is represented in your notes in a way that makes sense to you. The next step will be to complete Activities 25 & 26 on page 227 in complete sentences. Get your notes checked before you move on to this step.

The Spanish Subjunctive Until now, you have been using verb tenses (present, preterit, and imperfect) in the indicative mood (or mode). The indicative is used to express real, definite, or factual actions or states of being. The subjunctive is used to express the hypothetical or subjective, such as a speaker’s attitudes, wishes, feelings, emotions, or doubts. Unlike the indicative, which states facts, the subjunctive describes reality subjectively, or refers to actions or states that are not yet reality at all (and maybe never will be).

The Spanish Subjunctive Notice the following examples: Creo que Luis va a Cartagena. I believe that Luis is going to Cartagena. (Certainty: indicative) No creo que Luis vaya a San Andrés. I don’t think that Luis is going to San Andrés. (Uncertainty: subjunctive)

The forms of the subjunctive 6/8/2018 The forms of the subjunctive Before we learn usage, we must learn the forms we will be working with. Think of it as learning the mechanics or “nuts and bolts” before assembling the tool. For all but six verbs in Spanish, we can apply a simple three-step process with which to construct the forms. Step 1: Start with the yo form of the verb in the present tense (this applies to all three conjugations): hablo como vivo
