Using your sheets from yesterday, make sure that you feel good about your three goals/resolutions and the three action steps for each goal. When you do, on an index card, put your name on ONE SIDE and your goals and action steps on the OTHER SIDE.
You’ll hand in both your brainstorming sheet & index card before the end of class today.

5. 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.

6. 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

7. 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.

8. 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.

15. 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).

16. 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)

17. The forms of the subjunctive

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

18. The forms of the subjunctive
6/8/2018
The forms of the subjunctive
Step 1: Start with the yo form of the verb in the present tense (this applies to all three conjugations):
hablo
como
vivo
If we are careful to begin with this step, verbs with irregular stems and yo forms will be included and will not be considered irregular in the subjunctive:
conocer → conozco
oír → oigo
tener → tengo
decir → digo
pedir → pido
traer → traigo
dormir → duermo
perder → pierdo
venir → vengo
hacer → hago
querer → quiero
ver → veo

Step 2: Take off the final o of the yo form:
habl o
com o
viv o
Step 3: Add the “opposite” endings:
For -ar verbs: Add -er verb endings.
habl e
habl
emos
habl es
habl
éis
habl e
habl en
Notice that the first- and third-person singular forms are identical.
