In sentences requiring subjunctive, the imperfect subjunctive must be used when…

the verb of the main clause is in a past tense. This

occurs:

after a verb or expression of volition:

In other words: a wish, an order, a suggestion or the forbidding of an action

after impersonal expressions conveying an implied command, opinion or judgement

after a verb or expression of emotion

after a verb or expression of doubt

after a relative pronoun when uncertainty is impliedwhen the verb of the main clause is in the conditional

after a conjunction indicating: a purpose or intent (para que), a restriction (con tal que) or anticipation (antes de que)

• Advice/recommendations• Wishes/wants• Emotions• Desires• Doubt• Impersonal expressions (of

volition)• Need/negation• Goal/God willing (Ojalá)• +• Unknown/non-existent

After these adverbial clauses, one sometimes uses subjunctive,

especially with a future even thatmay or may not happen!
