Usage Examples English

  • The Present Indicative of the subordinate clause will be substituted with the subjunctive present; similarly, the present perfect will be substituted with its correspondent form, that of the past subjunctive and the Past perfect tense with the subjunctive past perfect.
  • In subordinate clauses, the word order differs from that of main clauses.
