- The subjunctive in Spanish is one of the trickiest topics to master, that’s why I’ve decided to make a video to introduce you the present subjunctive. In this video you’ll learn when to use the subjunctive vs indicative, it’s important to understand the nuances behind these two moods. Then I’ll show how to conjugate the verbs in the present subjunctive for both regular verbs and irregular ones (don’t worry, there are only 6) so you can start using the subjunctive in the present right away.
Here’s the list of all the videos I’ve created to MASTER PRESENT SUBJUNCTIVE in SPANISH:

I must say this is the best, clearest, explanation of the Subjunctive I have found. Excellent work. Gracious!
Thank you. I appreciate your feedback ☺️
Si si acuerdo
Best explanation of how to think about subjunctive I've seen....simple...thx
As an native English speaker, i feel like we speak in the subjunctive most of the time. The way Spanish courses are set up, this topic is advance. I think it should be taught much earlier bc not knowing this mood has stunted my growth in Spanish. Thanks to you, i can grow in the language
Totally agree I wasn’t taught it in detail during GCSE, having to teach myself it in preparation for A-Level!
I am Spanish and you are absolutelly right. Sugjunctive should be taught at the same time as their insicative counterpart because a lot of basic senteces with relative clauses are built like that.
Absolutely correct! This topic should come up MUCH earlier and not presented as such a demon since we use it in English all the time.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone better at explaining grammar. Thank you so much Paula!
This is simply the best explanation of the subjunctive on CZcams. Bravo!
Tu método de enseñanza es absolutamente extraordinario. Te amo por eso.
I must say you are one of the best teacher .i love you explanation lots if love from india.thank you so much

Estás una estrella!!! - Soooo very clear and well presented. Thank you!
Thank YOU for learning with me! ☺️
That hack is very useful! Thank you so much!
Paula, You are the best! I have been trying to learn spanish for some 3 months now, and have tried a few online options. Although some of them are not bad, yours is by far the best: Clarity of explanation and talking slowly so I can pick up the right accent, etc. If you want a suggestion (and it is easier said than done)... - you could assemble and organize the material so a learner can follow the sequence starting from ground zero. All the best you and yours, Ciao.
Gracias. Tu has explicado muy clara.Especialmente "the point of view" cuando usemos el subjunctivo.
IAM new in Spain and learning Spanish .the way of Ur teaching is far better than others , easy to understand .keep continuing .Muchisimo gracias !
Paula - muchas gracias por explicarnos sobre el subjuntivo! Creo que seas una maestra muy efectiva.
Thanks so much! You make this subject clear and easy to understand. I have heard so much about the subjunctive; but with your explanation it doesn't seem so difficult at all.
Thank YOU for your feedback. I always try to simplify things. 😊
I feel like I have done very well in my studies and diligence, and then we meet with a subject like this which is very counterintuitive to native English speakers. I certainly appreciate the explanation and this awakens a greater understanding of Spanish grammar. Thank you very much. 🙂
Amazing video Paula!!!!! I finally have a clear understanding of the subjunctive. I am looking forward to the series.
Woohoo 🎉 I’m glad it’s clear now.
There are already 2 new videos about the weirdo verbs. Enjoy them!!
I have understood the subjunctive because of you.

ahora he encontrado a maestra que me explicas el subjuntivo que entieno ..gracias..
Gracias por su tema en que ensenas espanol, la velocidad entre tu y 7 anos de los demas es bastante. no importa perdi tiempo, es que queria aprender y ese cambio desde ingles para espanol no llego. aunque me hace falta tanto, los detalles, la claridad.. eso.. sabes que escuche no se pues 7000 horas y no entendi mas de 20 por ciento.... sin subtitulas.. con usted 99.999 poor ciento entendi.. profesora(o) no es algo aprendes es regalo de un talento dios que los da. para mi descubri usted tan tardó pero para mi estoy agredecido en que este rompedecabesas por fin poc a poco estan dando ganas de como un rio fluyendo juntisismo.. no se si se un buen idea pero hablas mucho sobre las reglas en cada frase... pero no se como saber cual es o sea con todo con claridad .... cuando un frase acabar y otro comenzo.. pues espanol ufff es venus y ingles no se martes no.. pluto creo que si.. polos opuestsos... me cuesta mucho para muchas cosas y que me no entiendo que construyir paragrafos buenos... por que ejemplo espanol es.... primero frase la segunda que cortas todos para pronombres por fin gracias a usted entiendo mejor.. pero espanol no es un frase... es que no se 3 o 10 frases para comunicarse que quiere decir coon alguien.. me entiendes? mira esbrir tantos palabras creo que podrias cortar, por lo menos a mitad para darle la misma informacion. me gustaria mejor estructura para cambiarme tema de pensar.. ejemplo en ingles.. tenemos clases para recursos.. para no solo eniciar escribiendo que ojala que se va bien. we use outline basis to get the big picture before we start writing, to start off a paragraph or idea one is trying to express, we are taught to not repeat like in espanol but it means to put that topic, idea in its own sentence but making sure it flows, perdon i am not fluent in grammar but the concept i understand to start and let go my heart in expression.... but know i must tie it together in the journey and hopefully smoothly tie it all together in the end. ( understanding in inges we cannot repeast words or we sound uneducated and we are made fun discredited with the intent not mattering, so we use moooooore words, more sentences where as espanol mcho menos..or to say yo can write a million words in english and keep peoples attention... cañon.... en espanol losing people at every turn.. until there is no one left) so without losing sentido como espanol aun yo no lo ocupo.. tengo ganas de pero ni ...... idea como. entonces si puedes ayudar pues n se soy y lo unico con esta pedo de la cabeza pero asi lo tengo. me ayudas? creo que se me doy un ejemplo de que me hace falta en este commentario. es que tengo mucho vergenza a hablar y cauntos personas se van a leer eso... hicole..pero bueno, la ansiedad en publico con los demas fuera gente que me naci me da incapaz a superarlo en espanol. entonces disculpa es que soy yo un virgo, detallista que los demas nos odian pero es mi reporte y tambien todo la verdad en que estoy pidiendo ayudarme por fa!vor...... ay.. y pido una disculpa a usted porque la ingles que me puse pues... no sale como queria en este camino de llegar fluido a su idioma. muchas gracias por todos los videos y mas en que se pone mucho corazon prestas mucha atencion en las detalles, que hacen falta mucho en la vida hoy.
You are blessing for me.. seriously you taught me that... which my institute unable to teach ❤️❤️☺️☺️☺️
Aww thank you. Your words inspire me to keep going with my videos 😊😊
I was going to say WAIT , for IR , the subjunctive isn't "voya" but then I saw the end of the video for the irregular verbs :D THanks for these lessons, they are helping me a lot!
🤣🤣 Irregular verbs are everywhere. Muchas gracias for your support 😉
Eres fantastica!!
Muy bien explicado Paula. No es facíl para entender el subjuntivo pero ahora sé que como hacerlo - Gracias.
Gracias ☺️
No es un tema fácil, pero estoy segura que con práctica se domina.
En los próximos videos voy a enseñar frases y los verbos más comunes que disparan (trigger) el uso del subjuntivo.
gran instrucción. Desearía que fueras mi profesora. One thing. When you say look at this,,, don't say look this. De lo contrario tu íngles es muy bueno.
Muchas gracias ☺️

Excelente Paula! me encantan tus videos. Tiene alguna académica para instruir a personas para enseñar español?
Great 👍 video!!! Paula which sentence is correct when using a single subject in the Subjunctive? Yo dudo que vaya a la fiesta or Yo dudo que iré a la fiesta. Your help is greatly appreciated 🙏
Es muy claro
Excelente 👍🏻👍🏻
Paula, do you have videos explaining the use of subjunctives with only one subject? If not, I really want to see one as it would be super helpful.
Espero que yo use estes informaciones correctamente
16:37 - And of course they would be the most common ones. 😅😅😅
Quiero que sigas dando clases online....bueno, quería que siguieras ))
10.00Thanks!
first let me start by saying that i'm studying spanish, and of course I'll learn the language as it exists.
however....with that being said... there are many parts of spanish which rely on context, and it does so without an issue.
The verbs being a perfect example. while you can say "tú hablas....", it is far more common to say "hablas...." because the verb tells us which personal pronoun is being used.
For the same reason, the subjunctive mood is not needed.... (linguistically speaking) because the structure of the sentence already provides the context to tell the listener what is the intention of the speaker to communicate. While this might not be as obvious to a person who learned spanish as their primary language, it is glaringly obvious to someone learning spanish as a secondary language.
But as I said.... it is what it is and we'll learn the language as it exists.
EDIT: I wanted to add..... you're a wonderful teacher and have explained this topic incredibly well.
Thank you. Yes, every language is different and we have to embrace the way it is. 😉
Excellent video!
However, wouldn't normal indicative use of querer fall into the explanation of being uncertain? Or would that be because the infinitive would always follow quiero so it won't be conjugated anyway?

I found in a website that 'Poder' verb is conjugated as 'podamos' and 'podais' in the subject pronouns nosotros and vosotros in present Subjunctive.. Could you explain this plaise

Estoy segura DE que los perros pueden volar .
Si para preguntar dirías: "¿De qué estás segura ?", ese " de " se mantiene en la oración declarativa. Si al preguntar no va " de " tampoco al responder.
Is "vivo" spelled with B? Or am I loosing my mind here? Please, I'm trying really hard to learn Spanish and it confuses me tremendously when what I hear and read are not matching, in this case volar and vivo, I'm hearing it as Bolar and Bibo.
Am I having audible hallucinations?
Anyway thank you for putting up free lessons, it's greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Thank you so much for clarifying how to think about conjugating the present subjunctive! I am an intermediate student and this video really showed me that using the present indicative yo conjugation as a starting point to conjugating the present subjunctive is the best way.
Thank you for your support. I’m happy it was helpful. ☺️
