There are 5 main types of verb moods. Can you guess what they express based on what they are called?
Indicative
Imperative
Interrogative
Conditional
Subjunctive Slide5

The indicative mood expresses a fact, opinion, or question. Most English sentences are in this mood.
Examples:
I went to the school dance yesterday night.
I think the school dances are lame.
Can
I please go to the dance tonight?Slide6

The imperative mood expresses a command or a direct request. One hint to recognizing this mood is there is that the subject ‘you’ is implied in the sentence, but not stated: (You) Go home!”
Examples:
Text me when you get home.
Don’t text me after 10:00pm.
Set your cellphone alarm.Slide7

The interrogative mood asks a question that requests an action or asks for information. In this mood the main verb comes
before
the subject.
Examples:
Has the band finished their set?
Where is the concert this year?
When will you get home
from the concert?Slide8

The conditional mood expresses a state that
depends
on something else to happen. One hint to recognizing this mood is the common use of the words
might
,
should
could
, and
would
.
Examples
:
If it storms, the carnival might be closed.
If you had called, I would have come to the carnival.If you go, you could win the
title of Carnival Queen.Slide9

The subjunctive mood is not used often, and it is much more difficult to locate. The subjunctive mood most often expresses a wish, doubt, imaginary situation, or anything else contrary to fact.
Examples:
I
wish I were in Thailand, it is too cold here
. (wish)
May
you always be
happy! (wish)
He speaks Spanish as if he were from Spain. (contrary to fact)
.Slide10

There are two rules you can use that may help you locate the subjunctive mood.
Example:
The teacher asked that
he leave
her in peace.
1. When using the third person singular (he, she, it) in the subjunctive
mood, there is no ‘
es
’ or ‘s’ at the end of the verb.Slide11

2. The verb “to be” is used differently with this mood.
In the present tense, the verb is always
be
, not the normal use of
am
,
is
, or
are
.
Peace
be
with you. (Not “Peace is with you”).
In the past tense, the verb is
always
were, never
was
.
If I
were
a millionaire, I would buy my own island.Slide12
