The Present Subjunctive and the Present Perfect SubjunctiveSlide2

The formation of the present tense subjunctive will be easy for you because it is exactly the same as the formal commands! This time, you can follow the rule for more endings than just

Usted

and

Ustedes

.

Remember, since you are switching endings, the –car, -gar, -

zar

rules apply!

 Slide3

Take the

yo

form, drop the O, add the opposite ending.

something from studyspanish.com…

“All too frequently, the topic of the subjunctive is made far more difficult than is necessary. Let's try a slightly different approach, with the goal of making this topic less troublesome.

The subjunctive is not a tense; rather, it is a mood.

Tense

refers to when an action takes place (past, present, future), while

mood merely reflects how the speaker feels about the action. The subjunctive mood is rarely used in English, but it is widely used in Spanish” (http://www.studyspanish.com/lessons/subj1.htm)Slide18

Here are some examples of the subjunctive being used in English:

1. The

doctor recommends that he

take

the pills with food.

Subjunctive conjugation:

___________________________2. The law requires that you be 18 years old to vote.Subjunctive conjugation: ___________________________3. My mom wants me to go to the store.Subjunctive conjugation: __________________________Slide19

So now, on to USING the subjunctive with impersonal expressions:

Impersonal expression (this is the “trigger

”)

+

que

+ new subject + present subjunctive of the verbIt’s important that you study. (are you definitely studying? No. This person speaking feels that it’s important, but you can’t say “estudias” because that means you definitely study. The subjunctive is going to open up the idea that there is no guarantee here). In Spanish: Es importante que tú estudies. It’s important that you study (for you to study)Slide20

Sometimes in English we don’t say things exactly grammatically correct, so sometimes instead of “that” we use “for (subject) to.”

Ex: It’s

necessary for you guys to get good grades on this quiz =

what

you are really saying

is

“it is necessary that you all get good grades on this quiz.”Es necesario que ustedes saquen buenas notas en esta prueba.Slide21

You need the subjunctive with impersonal expressions when you have two different

subjects:

It’s

= one subject.

Then

you have the expression like “important” or “interesting” and then you have QUE, then a new subject like a different person or thing, then the subjunctive form of the new verb:Subject /expression + QUE + new subject + subjunctiveIt’s sad that Jacinta is not in school today =Es triste QUE Jacinta no esté en la escuela hoy.Slide22

Doubt, denial, desire, demands, impersonal expressions = all subjunctive!

Decide si la frase necesita “S” para el subjuntivo o “I” para el indicativo.

I

want

that

____He demands that ____It’s good that ____I know that ____It’s important that ____It’s definitely true that ____It’s necessary that ____It’s sad that _____It’s terrible that ______

I

need

to

think

____

It’s important to spend time with friends ___

It’s good for her to spend time with friends ____

It’s a shame to fail a test ____

It’s a shame that fails tests ____

I want to help ___

I want them to help me____Slide23

It may be helpful for you to rewrite sentences in English to be sure you know that it fits this model with the “

que

” plus a different subject:

It’s important for her to study Spanish in college= rewritten in ENGLISH = ______________________________________________________________________

Now, the Spanish version with subjunctive:

______________________________________________________________________ Slide24

It’s logical for him to arrive late tonight. =

Eng

= ______________________________________________________________________

Span = ______________________________________________________________________

It’s strange that she eats lunch alone. ______________________________________________________

 It’s better for us to go to the store now. ______________________________________________________________________Slide25

It’s a shame that they don’t know the new student. ______________________________________________________________________

It’s important for her to come to class on time. ______________________________________________________________________

It’s dangerous that your dad doesn’t use a helmet! ______________________________________________________________________Slide26

Some expressions that are NOT used with the subjunctive:

It’s true that Spanish class is awesome.

It is obvious that there is snow outside.

There is no doubt that the students have played in the snow.Slide27

The present perfect subjunctive

You’ve already learned that to form the present perfect in the indicative, you take the present tense of “Haber” and attach a past participle of the verb.

Ejemplo:

He hablado con mi madre.

= I have spoken with my mother.Slide28

The subjunctive mood also has a present perfect tense! To form it, you use the present subjunctive of “Haber” plus the same past participles of the verbs.

 Slide29

Haya

Hayamos

Hayas

X

Haya

HayanSlide30

You use the present perfect subjunctive to indicate that the subordinate clause (the one that depends on the other clause; often second) took place in the past.

It’s possible that he’ll go to the store:

So

: It’s possible = present.

“

that” (connects the clauses) he (may/will) go to the

store.Es posible (presente) “que” (conecta) él vaya a la tienda. <- subjunctive!!This entire sentence is in the present tense.Slide31

VS: present perfect

It’s possible that he went to the store.

It’s

possible = present.

“

that” (connects the clauses)

he went (past) to the store.You can’t have present and past in the same sentence so what they do is use the present perfect of the subjunctive to make it like it happened in the past.It’s possible = present. “that” (connects the clauses) he has gone (pres. perf) to the store.Es posible (presente) “que” (conecta) él haya ido a la tienda. (present perfect subjunctive!) Slide32

Present Subjunctive:

Es

posible

que Romeo visite a Julieta

. = It’s possible that Romeo is visiting/will visit Juliet. Present Perfect Subjunctive:Es posible que Romeo haya visitado a Julieta. = It’s possible that Romeo has visited / visited Juliet.Slide33

Present

Subjunctive

:

Es bueno que hagas eso.

=

It’s good that you are doing/will do that. Present Perfect Subjunctive:Es bueno que hayas hecho eso. = It’s good that you have done/did that.Slide34

Present subjunctive:

It’s good for her to buy food at the market ________________________________________________________________________

Present perfect subjunctive:

1a. It’s good that she bought food at the market: __________________________________________________________________Slide35

2.It’s

a shame that she has to study tonight. ____________________________________________________________________________

2a.

It’s

a shame

that she had to study tonight. ______________________________________________________________________Slide36

3.It’s

important to start the test at 4:30 pm.

______________________________________________________________________

a.It’s

important for them to start the test. ______________________________________________________________________

b.It’s important that she started the test. ______________________________________________________________________Slide37
