Imperfect Subjunctive

Imperfect Subjunctive

The imperfect subjunctive is formed by taking the third person plural of the preterite minus -on.

hablaron      hablar-
comieron      comier-
vivieron      vivier-

To this stem you add the following endings:
-a, -as, -a, -amos, -ais, -an

One of the most common uses of the imperfect subjunctive is in a si clause. In such a clause it has a hypothetical meaning.

Si yo fuera el presidente... If I were the president...
Si tuviera mucho dinero... If I had a lot of money...
Si hablara cinco idiomas... If I spoke five languages...
