The Subjunctive Mood in Italian: Il Congiuntivo

The infamous subjunctive mood! There are so many tenses, plus the dreaded sequence of tenses, this is overwhelming! Ok, take it easy, friend. Let's start very simply, let's just discuss what the subjunctive mood is, and when you would use it. That's not so bad, right?

This is the best explanation of the subjuctive mood that I have ever heard. I usually run away from it, but now that it makes more sense to me, I just want to find exercises to practice! Thank you! 😊👍🏾

If you think or believe something, why would that trigger subjunctive? Surely it’s the opposite that would do so

2:10 - “…while in English we can omit the conjunction _that_ , Italian will not.” Non credo sia corretto.
