Essential ?s: How do I say ‘let’s’, what are the final uses of the subjunctive and how do I focus on actions without mentioning the agent?

 Review of the triggers Doubt Wants, hopes about someone else Impersonal phrases Reactions, feelings about others’ actions Reactions now to past events (haya ___ado/ido) Adjective clauses in some cases

 There is one trigger you have learned that is incomplete  I call them “frases siempre” because they SIEMPRE trigger the subjunctive Para que (so that) A menos que (unless) Antes que (before) En caso de que (in case) Con tal que (as long as, provided that) Sin que (without)

 New trigger – “a veces” phrases  There are two types  Time phrases: They trigger the subjunctive if referring to something that hasn’t happened yet. Cuando (when) Después que (after) Mientras que (while) Hasta que (until) Tan pronto como (as soon as)

 Ejemplos Normalmente trabajo hasta que mi esposa prepara la cena. (normal) Hoy voy a trabajar hasta que mi esposa prepare la cena. (about a moment that hasn’t happened yet) Pueden salir cuando suene la campana. (the bell hasn’t rung yet) Vamos a ver el programa después que lleguen los chicos. (they haven’t gotten there yet)
