Subjunctive TensePresente do Subjuntivo

Introduction

The Portuguese subjunctive mood is one of the most difficult concepts for English speakers to learn. While English has a subjunctive mood, its grammatical formulations aren't quite as different from the indicative tenses.

You use the subjunctive for various reasons:

    cases of desire
    to express doubt
    to make impersonal statements
    to talk about impeding events

Portuguese also has a imperfect and future subjunctive that describes past and future events in the same way as above.
