EL SUBJUNTIVO USING THE SUBJUNCTIVE MOOD IN SPANISH

2 WHAT DIFFERENCES DO YOU SEE IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCES?
It’s raining outside. I hope that it’s raining outside. We will have a lot of homework. I don’t want us to have a lot of homework. She eats healthy food. It’s good that she eats healthy food. I’m certain that he is coming. I doubt that he is coming.

3 THE SUBJUNCTIVE… Is a mood, not a tense.
*A tense deals with when something happens (past, present). Example: We’re going to the beach tomorrow. *A mood expresses how a speaker feels about something. Example: I am happy that we are going to the beach tomorrow.

4 THE INDICATIVE MOOD Up until now, we’ve been using the indicative mood, which states factual information. The indicative requires certainty on the part of the speaker. Examples: We are going to the beach tomorrow. Vamos a la playa mañana. I think that it’s going to rain. Creo que va a llover.

5 SUMMARY: The Subjunctive: The Indicative: Uncertainty/Subjectivity
Certainty/Objectivity Examples: Yo creo que vamos a ganar. Es cierto que no tenemos tarea. The Subjunctive: Uncertainty/Subjectivity Examples: Dudo que vayamos a ganar. Es posible que no tengamos tarea.

6 THE INDICATIVE AND SUBJUNCTIVE ARE REPRESENTED BY 2 TYPES OF GUYS:
Mr. Factual (Indicative) Knows the facts Deals in reality Is sure and certain Mr. Dreamer (Subjunctive) Talks about feelings and the hypothetical Out of touch with reality Doubts and is uncertain

7 WHO WOULD SAY THE FOLLOWING? MR. FACTUAL OR MR. DREAMER ?
I hope that it rains tomorrow. She is coming with us. I want her to come with us. It’s possible that she calls today. I’m sure that she’s calling today. He might be here already. He already arrived. It’s terrible that you aren’t coming. I wish you would come. I have to work at 8:00.

8 IN ORDER TO USE THE SUBJUNCTIVE…
There must be 2 clauses in a sentence separated by the word que (that). (A clause = a group of words with a subject and a conjugated verb) 2. There must be a subject change between clauses. 3. The main clause must be an expression of will (hope, want, wish), doubt or denial, emotion, or an impersonal expression (it’s possible, it’s necessary). Main Clause Connector Subordinate Clause I doubt that the movie is good. He hopes that she doesn’t arrive late. It’s good that we don’t have homework. We don’t believe that they have the money.

9 WHEN THERE IS NO SUBJECT CHANGE…
An infinitive is often used. Examples: I want to go with you. Quiero ir contigo. It’ necessary to study every night. Es necesario estudiar cada noche. It’s good to exercise. Es bueno hacer ejercicio.

10 WOULD THE HIGH-LIGHTED VERB BE IN THE SUBJUNCTIVE OR THE INDICATIVE MOOD?

It’s possible that it is snowing outside. They doubt that we will win. She believes that it is important. We think that the book is good. It’s terrible that she is sick.

11 THE THREE STEPS TO FORMING THE SUBJUNCTIVE:
Put the verb in the yo form of the present tense. Ex: poner – pongo 2. Drop the “o” Ex: pong 3. Add the opposite ending (-ar verbs get –er endings, -er/ir verbs get –ar endings) Ex: yo ponga *the yo form is the same as the 3rd person form tú pongas ud. ponga nosotros pongamos vosotros pongáis ellos pongan
