Question

Explain the process of changing a verb to the subjunctive tense, then conjugate the following verbs completely (all 5 forms) in their subjunctive tense:

1) Vivir

2) Venir

Answer 1

Present Imperfect Imperfect 2 Future

yo viva viviera viviese viviere

tú vivas vivieras vivieses vivieres

él/ella/Ud. viva viviera viviese viviere

nosotros vivamos viviéramos viviésemos viviéremos

vosotros viváis viváis vivieseis viviereis

ellos/ellas/Uds. vivan vivieran viviesen vivieren

Step-by-step explanation:

To conjugate a verb in the present tense subjunctive mood, we're going to do something a little weird. First we conjugate in the present tense indicative yo form, then we drop the "-o" ending, and then we add the following endings

Because the yo form and él/ella/Ud. forms are identical, it is a good idea to include the subject pronoun yo to avoid confusion: Juan quiere que yo participe también
