Spanish yo-go verbs in the present subjunctive
In Spanish, so-called yo-go verbs, which have a spelling irregularly in the present indicative, have that same irregularity in the present subjunctive. The difference is that while in the present indicative only the yo form is affected by this stem change, in the present subjunctive all forms require the stem change.
