Why a subjunctive in this sentence?
This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Conjugate Spanish stem-changing -car verbs (c > qu) in the present subjunctive (El Presente de Subjuntivo)"
Asked 1 year ago
Hola Ien
This needs the present subjunctive because it is a command to "ourselves", as in "let's ....":
¡Vayamos a la fiesta! Let's go to the party!
¡Bailemos todos juntos! Let's all dance together!
When you have a command/ imperative for the nosotros form, the form of the imperative is the same form of the present subjunctive.
Here's the lesson for this.
I hope this clarifies it.
