  1. ANTE TODO • In both Spanish and English, conjunctions are words or phrases that connect other words and clauses in sentences. • Certain conjunctions commonly introduce adverbial clauses, which describe how, why, when, and where an action takes place. Main clauseConjunctionSubordinate clause Vamos a visitar a Carlos antes de que regrese a California.

  2. The subjunctive is used to express a hypothetical situation, uncertainty as to whether an action or event will take place, or a condition that may or may not be fulfilled. • Voy a dejar un recado en caso de que Gustavo me llame. • I’m going to leave a message in case Gustavo calls me. • Voy al supermercado para que tengas algo de comer. • I’m going to the store so that you’ll have something to eat.

  3. Conjunctions that require the subjunctive El uso obligatorio del subjuntivo después de algunas expresiones adverbiales con “que” (ESCAPA) Algunos animales van a morir a menos que haya leyes para protegerlos. Some animals are going to die unless there are laws to protect them. Ellos nos llevan a la selva para que veamos las plantas tropicales. They are taking us to the jungle so that we may see the tropical plants.

  4. The infinitive is used after the prepositions antes de, para, and sin when there is no use of “que.” We never use the indicative with ESCAPA conjunctions. • Te llamamos antes de salir de la casa. • We will call you before leaving the house. • Te llamamos mañana antes de que salgas. • We will call you tomorrow before you leave.

  5. ¡ATENCIÓN! • Note that while you may use a gerund with the English equivalent of these conjunctions, in Spanish you must use the subjunctive. • Lo hacemos sin que nos lo pidan. • We do it without them (their) asking us.

  6. Conjunctions with subjunctive or indicative: El subjuntivo o el indicativo después e otras expresiones adverbiales: CHAD ATE * Not in text Voy a formar un club de ecología tan pronto como vuelva a España. Cuando veo basura, la recojo.

  7. With the conjunctions above, use the subjunctive in the subordinate clause if the main clause expresses a future action or command. Vamos a resolver el problema cuando desarrollemos nuevas tecnologías. We are going to solve the problem when we develop new technologies. Después de que ustedes tomen sus refrescos, reciclen las botellas. After you drink your soft drinks, recycle the bottles.

  8. With these conjunctions, the indicative is used in the subordinate clause if the verb in the main clause expresses an action that habitually happens, or that happened in the past. Contaminan los ríos cuando construyen nuevos edificios. They pollute the rivers when they build new buildings. Contaminaron el río cuando construyeron ese edificio. They polluted the river when they built that building. NOTE: You have to pay attention to the tense and use the appropriate indicative tense. The first example used the present. The second example used the preterite.
