10 Uses Of The Subjunctive Used after expressions of emotion, feeling, and judgment This includes: 1.Verbs and verbal expressions of emotion, feeling, and judgment like: alegrarse de que, esperar que, puede ser que, tener miedo de que, etc. 2.Impersonal expressions which express emotion, feeling, and judgment like: es absurdo que, es justo que, es imposible que, es triste que, etc. Remember that if the subject of both verbs is identical or the subject of both verbs is understood but not expressed, the infinitive is used Ex: Espero dormir bien esta noche

11 Uses Of The Subjunctive Used after expressions of doubt, denial, and uncertainty This includes: 1.Verbs and verbal expressions of doubt, denial, uncertainty, and negation like: dudar que, negar que, no creer que, no pensar que, etc. Remember that expressions that indicate certainty require the indicative: es cierto que, no hay duda de que, es verdad que, estar seguro(a) de que, etc.

13 Importante Antes de, para, and sin are followed by the infinitive when there isn’t a change in subject. Example: Antes de salir, comeré el desayuno.

14 Examples 1.Te lo prestaré con tal que me lo devuelvas en buena condición. I will lend it to you provided that you return it to me in good condition. 2.Jorge va a la fiesta a menos que la profesora asigne un proyecto. Jorge is going to the party unless the teacher assigns a project.

15 Conjunctions that can be used with either the Indicative or the Subjunctive De manera que: so, so that De modo que: so, so that Mientras que: while En cuanto: as soon as Tan pronto como: as soon as Así que: as soon as Después de que: after Luego que: as soon as Hasta que: until Cuando: when Una vez que: once Cada vez que: each time that

16 Requirements/Examples 1.The subjunctive if the subsequent action or event has not yet occurred. 2.The indicative if the action or event has already occurred or is customary. Cuando llega, le doy el dinero. When he arrives, I give him the money. Cuando lleguen, les pagaré el dinero. When they arrive, I will pay them the money.

17 Aunque Definition: even if, even though, although Subjunctive: When the subsequent clause refers to a hypothetical event or situation, unknown or unclear to the speaker. Indicative: When it refers to a factual event or situation. 1.Aunque sea caro, me gusta. Even if it is expensive, I like it. 2.Aunque es caro, me gusta. Although it is expensive, I like it.

18 The Subjunctive in Relative Clauses 1. The subjunctive is used after a relative pronoun (usually que) when the clause the clause the pronoun introduces: Refers to a person, place, or thing which may not exist or may not be found. Necesitas un libro que lo explique. Busco una chica que conzca este programa para la computadora. You need a book that explains it. I am looking for a girl who knows this computer program. Note that the personal a is omitted. However, when the pronouns alguen, nadie, aluguno and ninguno (when referring to people) are the direct object, the personal a is required.

19 The Subjunctive in Relative Clauses Refers to a negative antecedent such as nadie, nada, or ninguno. No conozco a nadie que sepa hablar esperanto. I don’t know anyone who knows how to speak Esperanto. No hay ningun estudiante que pueda resolver el problema. There is no student who can solve the problem.

20 The Subjunctive in Relative Clauses 2. The indicative is used after a relative pronoun when the clause the pronoun introduces refers to a person, place, or thing which definitely exists. Alejandro busca una computadora que no cueste mucho. Alejandro is looking for a computer that doesn’t cost much. Elena tiene una computadora que costó poco. Elena has a computer that cost very little.

21 The Subjunctive in Relative Clauses ¿Hay alguien que tenga un boligrafo? Is there someone who has a ballpoint pen? Si, hay alguien que tiene un boligrafo. Yes, there is someone who has a ballpoint pen. Note that in the first sentence of each pair above, the existence of the antecedent is in question and, therefore, the subjunctive is used. In the second sentence of each pair, the speaker affirms that there is such an object or person, so the indicative is used.

22 Other Uses of the Subjunctive 1. The ending –quiera can be added to certain words to form indefinite expressions know as –quiera compounds. Some important ones are: Adondequiera ( to wherever) Comoquiera (however) Cualquiera (whatever) Cuandoquiera (whenever) Dondequiera (wherever) Quienquiera (whoever)

23 Other Uses of the Subjunctive These compounds are followed by the subjunctive if uncertainty is implied and by the indicative if referring to something known. Yo compraré cualquier coche que me guste. I will buy whatever car I like. But: Samuel compra cualquier coche que le gusta. Samuel buys whatever car he likes.

24 Other Uses of the Subjunctive 2. The subjunctive is used in the construction: Por + adjective or adverb + que + sunjunctive Por difícil que sea el examen, saldré bien. Por rápido que él corra, no ganará el maratón. No matter how difficult the exam may be, I will do well. No mater how fast he runs, he will not win the marathon.

25 Other Uses of the Subjunctive 3. The subjunctive is also used in the following construction: Subjunctive + lo que + subjunctive Venga lo que venga, le daré la bienvenida. Diga lo que diga, no le haré caso. No matter what comes, I will welcome him. No matter what he says, I will not pay attention to him.

26 4. Tal vez, quizás, a lo mejor, and posiblemente can be followed by either the indicative or the subjunctive depending on the degree of certainty of the statement. Tal vez llueva hoy. Tal vez lloverá hoy. Perhaps it will rain today. Perhaps is will rain today. (more doubtful- subjunctive ) (less doubtful- indicative)
