2) It is possible that we'll have a test next week.

3) My mom suggests that I clean my room.

How do you form the Subjunctive?

• The 1st verb is conjugated normally in the present tense

• Then you put the word "que" in

• After the "que" you now conjugate in the Subjunctive

• Put the verb in the "yo" form to pick up any go verbs (tengo, hago, pongo) or stem changes (juego, duermo, quiero)

• Drop the "o"

• Switch the ending. Ar verbs now take Er endings: e, es, e, emos, éis, en

• Er/Ir verbs now take the Ar endings: a, as, a, amos, áis, an
