The Subjunctive Spanish has another way of using verbs called the subjunctive mood.
5
The Subjunctive We use it to say what one person does or doesn’t want, tell, suggest, or recommend someone else to do.
6
The Subjunctive A sentence that includes the subjunctive form has two parts connected by the word que. For example:
7
The Subjunctive Recomendamos que Uds. hablen con un agente de viajes.
We recommend that you speak with a travel agent.
8
The Subjunctive ¿Quiere Ud. que escribamos nuestros nombres en las maletas. Do you want us to write our names on our suitcases?

2 Clauses Ella sugiere que yo aprenda francés
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 Indicative Verb

The Subjunctive The first subject uses the present indicative verb (recommendation, suggestion, prohibition, and so on) + que and the second subject uses the present subjunctive verb (what should happen).

The Subjunctive Verbs that are often follewed by que + subjunctive:
Decir Insistir en Necesitar Permitir Preferir (e > ie) Prohibir Querer (e > ie) Recomendar (e > ie) Sugerir (e > ie)
