Welcome to our episode on mastering the subjunctive in Spanish! Today, we’ll dive into exercises that help you use the subjunctive in sentences describing actions or things.

We start with two key examples:

  • Buscaré un trabajo donde valoren mi experiencia.
  • Necesito un coche que tenga un buen rendimiento.


Notice the three common characteristics in these sentences:

  1. They use phrases with actions to describe something, rather than single words
  2. They include connectors like "where/donde" or "that/que"
  3. The action after the connector is in the subjunctive form, as there's no certainty that the described job or car exists.

We'll explore how phrases like "where they value my experience" or "that has a good performance" replace simpler descriptors like "good."


Plus, we'll cover other connectors in Spanish, such as quien, cuando, tan pronto como, hasta que, después de que, antes de que, mientras, con tal de que, a pesar de que, a menos que, en caso de que, sin que, aunque, tan pronto como, and luego que.

Tune in to enhance your understanding of the subjunctive and elevate your Spanish skills!
