    advice to all. to eliminate part of the subjunctive and build a good foundation, learn these triggers. querer necesitar dudar no creer no pensar recomendar........cuando para que hasta que es importante que.....these are a great start.

      Nonsense. 55 refers to the glorious passage of the revealed wisdom of God through John in the Book of Revelation:
      “Do not weep! Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals.”

    Thank you, this was very educational for me. I am struggling with 'Escucha y marca con una cruz la letra que oigas'. Is oigas in the subjunctive form for this one because it's from a spanish textbook and so is this a recommendation from the WEIRDO acronym?

    thanks for your video. Una pregunta - what is the difference between sthe ubjunctive and the conditional?

    • @Spanish55
      @Spanish55  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi @azbear2273! Thanks for watching and for your comment! El condicional puede usarse para expresar probabilidad o hacer peticiones de manera atenuada. El subjuntivo también pueden utilizarse para estas funciones, pero no presenta una acción completa sino que aparece en una oración subordinada. Por ejemplo, puedo decir "Ella podría venir mañana", donde "podría" es el verbo principal en condicional, pero si digo "le pedí que viniera mañana", el verbo principal es "pedí", y el subjuntivo se utiliza en la frase subordinada.
      I hope the explanation clarified things for you. If you're interested in diving deeper into this topic and enhancing your understanding, we'd like to invite you to a free trial lesson. During this lesson, we'll expand on the topic and provide more examples to ensure you grasp the concept fully. It's a great opportunity to ask questions and get personalized guidance. Let us know if you're interested, and we'll set it up for you!

  • @joebishman6163
    @joebishman6163 ปีที่แล้ว

    Estoy confudido. Will a subject change in a sentence trigger the subjunctive most of the time? Por ejemplo, ¿Recuerdas que vamos a comer pizza hoy? o ¿Recuerdas que vayas a comer pizza hoy? Or are these questions expressing different ideas like, Do you remember we are definitely going to eat pizza today vs. Do you remeber if we are going to eat pizza today?
    Also, what if I want someone to do something. Por ejemplo, Quiero que vayas a descanso a las once y media. I want you to go to break at 11Ñ30.

    • @Spanish55
      @Spanish55  ปีที่แล้ว

      La conjugación del verbo hace que cambie el sentido de la oración. Por ejemplo:

      Any examples would be useless without some prior knowledge of Spanish grammar. Walk before you run. She also explained important concepts before diving into the examples, so even without any Spanish skills, you should have come away with some good background information. As someone learning at a B1 level, I can say that this was a very helpful video. I think that if you watch this again in a year, you will get more out of it.

      Swings and roundabouts, John, really. If you think about the way you pronounce you own language, you will notice all kinds of shortcuts, elisions and contractions. You. Do. Not. Every. Time. Speak. Out. Each. Word.Perfectly. No, theyallruntogether.
      Close you eyes, listen to the sounds. Use the printed word only as a guide. We spoke before we read, as individuals and as a species.
