Can somebody explain to me when to use the indicative form of a verb and when to use the subjunctive... I don't remember this from 3 years of high school Spanish, but I know it's important. And now that my spanish is improving to a point where i'm easily using different tenses, but I'm not using the subjunctive form in the correct way. Thank you in advance. |

While this is an area where one can spend years on, in general, indicative is used when there is certainty. The subjuncitve is used with emotion or doubt. For example. Indicative. Yo voy al cine. I am going to the movies. Subjunctive. Yo quiero que el vaya al cine. I want him to go to the movies. It is not something that is certain, it is a desire of one person for another. There are many rules regarding the use of subjunctive, it takes time (I am mediocre with it, at best). Psychman |

Or, a more appropirate use of subjunctive, for our purposes, would be this. During the negotiating phase... Yo quiero que me chupes mucho= I want you to suck me a lot. Yo quiero que me mames los huevos= I want you to lick my balls.. Note the use of the contruction...lesson over for the day..go monger.. |
