1 El Subjuntivo The Subjunctive

2 Every verb has: Tense: indicates time (present, future, preterite, imperfect, etc…) Mood: the attitude of the speaker towards the action (verb)

3 There are 2 “moods” Indicative: when a fact is expressed (states a fact), it is the mood of “what is.” Example: He is a good student. Carlos is in Mexico. Elena studies English.

4 There are 2 “moods” Subjunctive: used to express wishes and other feelings and attitudes about an idea or fact. It is the mood of “what may be.” Examples: I wish he were an excellent student. It is important that he be home for Christmas. Her parents insist that she study French, too.

5 El Subjuntivo Ejemplo: Her parents insist that she study French, too.
Sus padres insisten en que ella estudie el francés también. 1. insisten en = the attitude of the speaker 2. estudie = the verb in the subjunctive **When a sentence uses the subjunctive, there is a change of subject. (one at the beginning—independent clause, and another after ‘que’—dependent clause)**
