Structure: The Subjunctive
The Subjunctive mood is used for a variety of things in the
Spanish language such as talking about something that is wished
for or something that may not be true (i.e. expressing doubt)
For example, “I hope she calls” or “I doubt he will come.”
Forming the Subjunctive:
1. Regular verbs

Drop the AR and add the opposite ending: AR- e, es, e, emos,
en ER/IR- a, as, a, amos, an
2. Examples:
 Casar- Case, cases, case, casemos, casen
 Comer- Coma, comas, coma, comamos, coman
 Vivir- Viva, vivas, vivamos, vivan
Structure: Stem-changing verbs in the Subjunctive
 Stem changing verbs in the subjunctive operate the same
The stem change only takes place within the first, second
and third person singular and also in the third person
plural, making them “boot” verbs.
 In other words, only the yo, tu, el/ella/usted, and ustedes forms
are changed in the subjunctive of stem-changing verbs.
 Just as in regular subjunctive forms, the ending also changes in the
word.
Examples:
CERRAR- Cierre, cierres, cierre, cerremos, cierren
2. CONTAR-Cuente,cuentes,cuente,contemos,cuenten
1.
3.
IR verbs in the subjunctive are different. The stem change still occurs in the
same places, but the first person plural (nosotros) also changes.
1.
2.
SENTIR- sienta, sientas, sienta, sintamos, sientan
DORMIR- duerma, duermas, duerma, durmamos, duerman.
