Q

2 examples that are NOT subjunctive

A
1) Ex: Tienes que estudiar 
estudiar is infinitive (NOT subjunctive)because the statement contains only ONE subject
2) “Pienso que” or “Creo que” express belief. Therefore they are NOT subjunctive.
Other examples of belief:
Es verdad
Es cierto
Es evidente
Es indudable
Es obvio
