Download Understanding Subjunctive Mood and Relative Pronouns in Spanish: A Comprehensive Guide and more Study notes Spanish Language in PDF only on Docsity! Subjunctive: doubt and certainty, emotion in your book, there is a box with common expressions of doubt and certainty on p. 160, emotion p. 161. I would recommend writing a sentence for each one, since on the exam you will be writing your own sentences. practice: intercambios, lengua book p 162 Relative Pronouns: QUE and LO QUE are the only ones that DON'T require prepositions or commas (they can go after them however) QUE is usually for easy, simple, concrete ideas and requires an explicit antecedent (what it refers to must be in the sentence) LO QUE usually involves an abstract concept or a large idea, particularly one that doesn't appear in the sentence anywhere. among those that REQUIRE preposition or comma: 1. QUIEN/QUIENES is for people only 2. EL/LA/LOS/LAS QUE can refer to people OR things. preferred after SIN, POR, or PARA and also two-syllable prepositions (hacia, ante, desde, etc.) 3. EL/LA CUAL, LOS/LAS CUALES refer to people OR things. preferred after COMPOUND PREPOSITIONS (those of more than one word: antes de, enfrente de, al lado de, etc.) Practice: lengua book p.148 intercambios (the answers are at the bottom of the box; cover them up before doing the act. then check your answers) http://www.trinity.edu/mstroud/grammar/pronrel2.htm (ignore any wrong answers you get for "cuyo"--this isn't one of the ones on the test) INDEFINITE AND NEGATIVE EXPRESSIONS this is generally an issue of vocab, not grammar. Make sure you know the meaning of all the words in the box on p. 151. Remember: once the sentence is negative, all terms must be negativized. Nunca quiero salir con nadie. No quiero salir nunca con nadie. Siempre quiero salir con alguien. etc. http://wps.prenhall.com/wl_zayas_conexionesCW_3/32/8377 /2144671.cw/index.html http://wps.prenhall.com/ml_rosso_atando_2/20/5244/13427 00.cw/index.html http://cf.linnbenton.edu/artcom/foreign_language/casasm /upload/expresiones% 20negat%20y%20afirm.ppt (if all works well, this is a ppt. explaining and giving many examples. the last three slides on pero, sino and ni siquiera are not on the exam but they are REALLY good to know) in Lengua book: p. 154 intercambios present perfect indicative vs. present perfect subjunctive: forms: http://conjuguemos.com/home/docs/nologin/spanish_verbs_ verbs_16.html (PP ind.) http://conjuguemos.com/home/docs/nologin/spanish_verbs_ verbs_25.html (pp. subj) OK, remember: the different between present perfect subjunctive and indicative is the SAME AS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANY SUBJ VS INDIC. v1+que+v2, v1=doubt, desire or emotion, v2=subjunctive. http://www.colby.edu/~bknelson/SLC/perfects_ind_subj.ph p lengua book p. 183 intercambios http://www.trentu.ca/academic/modernlanguages/spanish/m asarriba/presentperfsubj.
