47
Q

When do we use the indicative mood?

A

The indicative mood is the most common and is used to relate facts and objective statements.

Cada domingo voy a Reynosa con mi mama - Every sunday I go to Reynosa with my mom

48
Q

When do we use the subjunctive mood?

A

The subjunctive mood is used more commonly in Spanish than in English. It is used to express reactions and feelings (subjective thoughts).

Espero que el español el vuelva tal vez otro idioma oficial de estados unidos. - I hope that spanish becomes another official language of the US

49
Q

When do we use past perfect? and when do we use past imperfect?

A

The past preterite is used when you want to talk about specific events that happened at a certain time in the past. For example, “I sold my house,” (Vendí mi casa) or “the little boy ate a worm” (El niño se comió un gusano).

The past imperfect tense is used for speaking about past habitual events, like “I used to eat cereal every day,” (Yo comía cereales todos los días) or to give background information or set a scene in the past, such as “The door was opening and closing” (La puerta se abría y se cerraba)

Note: In the past imperfect tense, it is customary to add the subject before the verb when talking in first and third person.

50
Q

What is the conditional future?

A

Conditional future/past future
This is essentially the equivalent of the English “would” do something. This could be both in the case of a condition, such as “I would go if you wanted me to” (Yo iría si tú quisieras), or when referring to the future from a point in the past, like “She asked me if I would come back” (Ella me preguntó si yo volvería).

Only in Spanish, instead of having a separate word to express this (as we do in English), this is shown by adding an inflection to the end of the verb, very similar to the future tense.

51
Q

Hablar in conditional future

A

Yo HablAR-ía
Tu HablAR-ías
El/Ella HablAR-ía
Nosotros HablAR-íamos
Vosotros HablAR-íais
Ellos/Ellas HablAR-ían

52

Q

Abrir in conditional future

A

Yo AbrIR-ía
Tu AbrIR-ías
El/Ella AbrIR-ía

Vosotros AbrIR-íais
Ellos/as AbrIR-ían

54
Q

Which tense is this? How is it conjugated?

-Terminarías con él? (Would you break up with him?)

-Una luna de miel en Italia sería tan lindo! (A honeymoon in Italy would be so beautiful!)

-¿Qué harías tú en esta situación? (What would you do in this situation?)

A

Conditional future tense

Yo HablAR-ía ComER-ía AbrIR-ía
Tu HablAR-ías ComER-ías AbrIR-ías
El/Ella HablAR-ía ComER-ía AbrIR-ía
Nosotros HablAR-íamos ComER-íamos AbrIR-íamos
Vosotros HablAR-íais ComER-íais AbrIR-íais
Ellos/Ellas HablAR-ían ComER-ían AbrIR-ían

55
Q

How do we use the present subjunctive

A

Spanish present subjunctive expresses the idea of uncertainty or unknown-ness in all present or future situations.

Once again, be careful with the first and third person formations as they are identical. Make it clear who you are talking about.

Note that the subjunctive verb almost always follows the connector ‘que’.

  1. When you don’t think something is true.
    E.g: I don’t think he’s drinking tonight. | No creo que él tome hoy.
  2. When you hope something will happen.
    E.g: I hope he talks to me. | Espero que me hable.
  3. When you talk about the moment something happens in the future.
    E.g: When I travel to Uruguay, I’m going to visit all the monuments in the country. | Cuando viaje a Uruguay, voy a conocer todos los monumentos del país.
56

Q

Give an example of haber being used as an impersonal verb

A

When haber is used as an impersonal verb, it means there is or there are and expresses existence.

Hay mucha basura.
(There is a lot of trash.)

Hubo una explosión en la fábrica.
(There was an explosion in the factory.)

Habrá una fiesta mañana.
(There will be a party tomorrow.)

60
Q

Translate: There were many accidents

A

Never use haber in plural forms to express existence.
✅ Hubo muchos accidentes. (correct)
❌ Hubieron muchos accidentes. (incorrect)

61
Q

Haber as an impersonal verb in all tenses

Present Tense
Imperfect Tense
Preterite Tense
Future Tense
Conditional Tense
Present Tense Subjunctive

A

Presente – Present Tense
Hay – there is/are

Pretérito Imperfecto – Imperfect Tense
había – there was/were

Pretérito Perfecto – Preterite Tense
hubo – there was/were

Futuro – Future Tense
habrá – there will be

Condicional – Conditional Tense
habría – there would be

Presente Subjunctive – Present Tense Subjunctive

62
Q

How is haber used as an axillary verb?

A

Auxiliary verbs don’t convey meaning. As their name suggests, they help us to talk about the past, present and future. Haber appears in all Spanish compound tenses, and it is always preceded by past participles (verbs that end in “ado” or “ido”).

He visitado muchos países.
(I have visited many countries.)

Han hecho un excelente trabajo.
(They have done an excellent job.)

¿Has terminado la tarea?
(Have you finished the task?)

Important! The old form habemos should not be used anymore. It has been substituted by hemos.
✅ Nos hemos equivocado. (correct)
❌ Nos habemos equivocado. (incorrect)
