Tap any line to hear it. Grammar appears in context, never as a dry rule.
Verbs of doubt and emotion trigger the congiuntivo: « dubito che sia », « non credo che possa », « temo che non siano », « mi dispiace che tu la veda così », « sono contento che venga ». For a past worry, use the past subjunctive: « temo che sia partito ». Note: certainty (« sono sicuro che ») takes the indicative, but its negation (« non sono sicuro che ») takes the subjunctive.
Give a friend tactful advice about a big decision (4–5 sentences), using « temo che » and « dubito che » + subjunctive.
