One of the most challenging Grammar topics, even for C Level students, is the Subjunctive Mood (\u03a5\u03c0\u03bf\u03c4\u03b1\u03ba\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae, Ipotaktiki<\/i>) .<\/p>\n

The Subjunctive Mood is used basically to express wish, hope, expectation, intentions, and also to make suggestions and negative commands.<\/p>\n

It is formed by placing before the verb one of the following particles and conjunctions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
\u03b1\u03c2<\/b><\/td>\n\u03bd\u03b1<\/b><\/td>\n\u03b1\u03bd<\/b>, \u03b5\u03ac\u03bd<\/b><\/td>\n\u03b3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03bd\u03b1<\/i><\/b><\/td>\n\u03cc\u03c4\u03b1\u03bd<\/b><\/td>\n\u03ac\u03bc\u03b1<\/b><\/td>\n\u03bc\u03ae\u03c0\u03c9\u03c2<\/b><\/td>\n\u03c0\u03c1\u03b9\u03bd<\/b><\/td>\n(\u03bd\u03b1) \u03bc\u03b7<\/b>(\u03bd<\/b>)<\/b><\/td>\n\n
