The subjunctive mood in English
« on: July 26, 2016, 11:42:46 AM »
Dear Jose

Could you give a detailed lesson on the subjunctive mood? I am not too familiar with it. I have some understanding of it, but not too much as it is the least talk about grammar aspect.

I have two previous postings in the the Forum that should explain the uses of the subjunctive mood in adequate detail for you. Check them out:

1. When are subjunctive sentences called for and how are they constructed?

2. Some recurrent misuses of the English subjunctive (4-part series)

If you have further questions, do let me know.
