#22. When to use the indicative or the subjunctive in Spanish - Cuándo usar el indicativo o el subjuntivo en español

6 minutes

In this episode we will review a characterization about a family, observing when to use the verb in the indicative mood, and when to use the verb in the subjunctive mood.

We will use simple sentences. The important thing is to know how to differentiate when we are talking about concrete facts, or when we are talking about subjective things, such as doubts, feelings and emotions.

You will learn to say phrases like “dudo que mis hijos vean televisión hasta tarde” (I doubt my children watch TV until late), "creo que mi hijo juega video juegos en las noches" (I think my son plays video games at night”, "espero que mi hija no pase mucho tiempo frente a la pantalla" (I hope my daughter doesn't spend too much time in front of the screen”, and many more phrases.
