Question

Read each pair of statements. Complete the second statement of each pair with the correct subjunctive form of the underlined verb.

modelo
Umberto nunca planea su viaje. planea is underlined
Su mama insite en que Umerto planee mejor los viajes. planee is underlined


Uds. nunca me dicen (underlined) el numero del vuelo. Quiero que Uds. me lo _____ esta vez.

Answer 1

So I know I just change dicen unto a different form but that is where I am confused

Answer 2

Okay, so subjunctive is basically the same as regular, but the opposite vowel ending. See how in the model, the first sentence of planear is planea (regular), but the second sentence is planeE (subjunctive)

Answer 3

ar -> e
er/ir -> a

Answer 4

so dicen has to be regular

Answer 5

What "regular" means is just the present simple tense. dicen is present simple for ellos/ellas/Uds for the verb Decir

Answer 6

so dicen is what you start with, and you want the OPPOSITE vowel ending, which would change it to....

Answer 7

so would it me dice

Answer 8

nope, the subject-verb is Uds. dicen, and you want to change the dicen ending to an "a" Uds. ending. I'll give you an example:

Uds. leen (present simple tense)
Uds. lean (subjunctive form)

Same idea for your question!

Answer 9

so you would change it to
dican

Answer 10

Ahhhh yeahhh, crappp. I forgot about this part... Alright, so there's actually more to subjunctive... It's a little more than just this, I forgot about it for a second there

Answer 11

so decir

Answer 12

To deal with subjunctive form, you have 3 steps:
1. Start with "yo" form
2. Drop the "o"
3. Add opposite vowel ending

Answer 13

I feel bad about the mess up so I'll give you that answer and the steps:
1. Start with yo form -> Digo
2. Drop the o -> Dig
3. Add opposite vowel ending -> Digan

Answer 14

That's how you find subjunctive form. There is, however, irregular verbs that you just have to memorize (dar, ir, ser, haber, estar, saber). The irregulars don't follow the 3 steps

Answer 15

so digan is the answer

Answer 16

yup! pretty much.
