Present and Past Subjunctive with Doubt Spanish Lesson Plans and Resource Sheet

The Spanish present and past subjunctive are used to express doubt, uncertainty, hypothetical situations, and feelings. In the present tense, the subjunctive is used when expressing doubt or uncertainty about the outcome of an action, as well as when making a suggestion or a recommendation.

  • For example, “Espero que venga pronto” (I hope he/she comes soon) or “Recomiendo que estudies para el examen” (I recommend that you study for the exam).

In the past tense, the subjunctive is used to express doubt, uncertainty or hypothetical situations about an event or action that has already happened.

  • For example, “No creía que hubiera cometido ese error” (I didn’t think he/she had made that mistake) or “Si hubieras venido, habríamos disfrutado juntos” (If you had come, we would have enjoyed together).

Overall, the subjunctive mood in Spanish is used to convey emotions, doubt, hypothetical situations, and to make recommendations or suggestions.
