WHAT IS THE SUBJUNCTIVE?

The subjunctive is used for a verb when something could or could not happen. If you want to say "If you do that, it will be bad", you are saying that the person could do that or they might not. In this case, we will use the subjunctive.

You can also use this tense to give commands, wishes, or hopes. If want to tell someone "I want you to look, please", you are basically saying that you want them to look. They might do it, but they might not. This is why they use the subjunctive. You don't know if they will listen, but you hope that they will.

Also, with the subjunctive, there is not a separate conjugation for I and he,she,it. They will be the same.

To find the subjunctive tense of a verb, you will give -ar verbs the endings of the -er, and you will give the -er and -ir verbs the endings of the -ar verbs. As always, there are a few exceptions to these rules. For example, the él/ellaústed subjunctive of tener is tenga, poner is ponga, salir, is salga, etc. The main irregularities are with those verbs that have the -go ending when conjugated to the yo form normally.

PREPARING OUR RESPONSE

Let's think about thinks we could talk about to use the subjunctive.

Giving requests, wishes, desires, hopes, etc.

Saying that if something does something, something else will happen.

Saying that something might be one way, and it might not.

Let's think about how we can use these when talking to the genie. Let's diagram five sentence ideas.

1. Hey, thank you! I hope that you're telling the truth, Mr. Genie. (Giving a hope)

2. If you don't grant my wish, it will make me very angry. (If something doesn't happen, something else will happen)

3. I want you to give me a big mansion, a new car, lots of money, new friends, and the ability to learn very quickly. (desires)

4. If you do this, it would bring me a lot of joy to me (if something happens, something else will happen)

5. I hope that you have a good day! (A hope)

VOCABULARY

Let's look at some important vocabulary for our response.

genie- el genio

to grant (a wish)- conceder

joy- la alegría

to bring- traer

to tell the truth- decir la verdad

ability- la habilidad

angry- enojado/a (use o if you are male and a if you are female)

THE RESPONSE

Quiero que me des una mansión grande, un coche nuevo, mucho dinero, amigos nuevos, y la habilidad de aprender muy rápidamente. Si hagas esto, me traerá mucha alegría. ¡Espero que tengas un buen día!

Write 2 paragraphs describing the refugee boat!! PLS

ddd [48]

Answer: In 2014, more than 200,000 refugees and migrants fled for safety across the Mediterranean Sea.

Crammed into overcrowded, unsafe boats, thousands drowned, prompting the Pope to warn that

the sea was becoming a mass graveyard. The early months of 2015 saw no respite. In April alone

more than 1,300 people drowned. This led to a large public outcry to increase rescue operations.

Throughout this period, UNHCR and other humanitarian organisations, engaged in a series of

large-scale media advocacy exercises, aiming at convincing European countries to do more to

help. It was crucial work, setting the tone for the dramatic rise in attention to the refugee crisis

that followed in the second half of 2015.

But the media was far from united in its response. While some outlets joined the call for more

assistance, others were unsympathetic, arguing against increasing rescue operations. To learn

why UNHCR commissioned a report by the Cardiff School of Journalism to explore what was

driving media coverage in five different European countries: Spain, Italy, Germany, the UK and

Sweden.

Researchers combed through thousands of articles written in 2014 and early 2015, revealing a

the number of important findings for future media advocacy campaigns.

Most importantly, they found major differences between countries, in terms of the sources

journalists used (domestic politicians, foreign politicians, citizens, or NGOs), the language they

employed, the reasons they gave for the rise in refugee flows, and the solutions they suggested.
