In this lesson (which is number 110 in the course) you refer to and use the imperfect and pluperfect subjunctive, although those tenses are only explained in lessons 112 and 113! I should remark here that this is my only criticism of this course, which in general I have found to be excellent and very useful. Mille grazie!

Hi Dave , in the complex sentence , if the main clause is in the Future Tense , what Tenses could be used in the Subordinate clause ( INDICATIVE ) ??? THNX

[@andrewgreenfield8623]

I thought that in some cases when the verb in the main clause is in the the present (a primary) tense and the action in the dependent clause occurred beforehand (priority) that the imperfect subjunctive can sometimes be used in the dependent clause instead of the past subjunctive. Could you comment on this?

[@JV-km9xk]

I heard that even the Italians find the subjunction/congiuntivo hard and often omit it in speech. With these highly advanced ones, even more so. Is this true?

can you add arabic caption for all videos? if it possible please.......

[@ProfessorDaveExplains]

sorry i don't speak arabic!

[@woofle4830]

it's annoying that language teaching apps use english as a medium to learn other languages. If you're a russian trying to learn estonian, unless you know a Russian who speaks Estonian, you'd have to learn English first, to be able to use the learning resources avaliable. I'm guessing you're Arabic and learning italian?

[@sagvanberwari4610]

@@woofle4830 no i am not arabic But understand Arabic more than English I have seen some videos on this channel with Arabic captions for that i asked
