What is the difference between indicative and subjunctive tenses?
We use the indicative to talk about facts we consider to be certain. We use the subjunctive to describe how we feel about those facts, and to express uncertainty.
How do you know if a verb is indicative or subjunctive?
Remember, the indicative mood expresses things that are sure, certain, and (believed to be) true. The subjunctive mood is all about uncertainty and doubt. It's also not sure if the subject in the subordinate clause will complete the action.
How to tell the difference between subjunctive indicative and infinitive?
1) Use Infinitive when the subject of the two verbs is the same. No le gusta trabajar los domingos. No me importa caminar bajo la lluvia y mojarme. 2) Use Subjunctive when the subject of the verbs isn't the same.
