51
When do we use the past perfect of the subjunctive? & how do we use
We use the past perfect of the subjunctive in structures that require the subjunctive, but unlike the present subjunctive, we only use this form to talk about recently completed events, past events without specifying a date, or to refer to an action that will end in the future. These are the same uses as the preterite perfect indicative). We never use the perfect subjunctive if the verb of the main clause is in the past tense. The past perfect of the subjunctive is built with the auxiliary verb 'have' in the present subjunctive and the participle of the verb that we want to conjugate (in regular verbs, the participle of verbs ending in -ar is -ado and for verbs ending in -er, -ir is -ido). ``` Ex. yo haya ■ tú hayas hablado ■ él haya cantado ■ nosotros hayamos corrido ■ vosotros hayáis vivido ■ ellos hayan ```
52
When do we use imperfect subjunctive? & how conjugate
We use this form in structures where we need to use the subjunctive, and the subjunctive verb can refer to the past, present or future. Generally, when the verb of the main clause is in a tense past or conditional, we use the imperfect subjunctive. We also use it with expressions of courtesy and to express conditions which would rarely be fulfilled together with the conditional mood. estudiara/se, estudiaras/ses, estudiara/se, estudiaraos/semos, estudiarais/seis, estudiaran/sen fuera/se, fueras/ses, fuera/se, fueramos/semos, fuerais/fuesemos, fueran/ suesen saliera/se, salieras/ses, saliera/se, saliera/se...

63
What is the difference between the use of the present subjunctive, perfect subjunctive, and imperfect subjunctive
the difference between the use of the present subjunctive and the perfect subjunctive is that, when we use the present, the action of the verb is located in the present or future tense, and when we use the perfect, the action of the verb It is situated in the past without a specific date or in the recent past. When the verb of the main clause is in the past, the verb of the relative usually goes in the imperfect subjunctive. On the other hand, when it goes in the conditional (CONDITIONAL) (LAST) It can go both in the present subjunctive and in the imperfect subjunctive when we place the action in a past tense unrelated to the present, we use the imperfect subjunctive; when we place it in a recent past related to the present, we use the perfect subjunctive, and when we place the action in the present or future, we use the present subjunctive.
