El Subjuntivo
The subjunctive mood: expressing subjective reactions to the actions of others
IndicativeThe verb tenses you have learned so far:
Present (incl. the “–ing” form, ir+a+inf future)Past (the preterite and the imperfect)
The indicative is used for stating facts, communicating knowledge, or asking questions:
Quiero conocer a Jaime.¿Qué comiste esta mañana?
The subjunctive mood: expressing subjective reactions to the actions of others
Subjunctive mood Used to convey one speaker’s wishes,
attitudes, hopes, fears, doubts, uncertainties, and other personal reactions to the events and actions of others.
Quiero que (tú) conozcas a Jaime.
Espero que (él) esté en casa.
Me alegro de que (ustedes) vengan temprano a conocerlo.
The subjunctive is needed when we want to express a WEIRDO:
The subjunctive mood
Formation of the subjunctive mood Start with the Yo form in the present tense Drop the “o” ending add the opposite endings:
▪ -Ar adds –Er/-Ir endings; -Er/-Ir adds –Ar endings
1) Hablar ---> Hablo
2) Drop the "o"
3) ---> Habl-
4) Add the opposite ending: `e' (in other words, an ending we would expect to see on an Ir or Er verb)
5) ---> Hable [subjunctive!]
•We take the first person singular "Yo " form of the verb (we'll use Hablar):
