Frequent doubts

Do nosotros and vosotros change in the subjunctive?

Not in -ar and -er verbs: queramos, queráis; recordemos, recordéis. The change only appears in the other persons.

Which verbs belong to this group?

-ar and -er verbs with e>ie or o>ue in the present: pensar, entender, perder, querer, contar, poder, volver, doler.

And -ir verbs like sentir or dormir?

They have an extra change in nosotros and vosotros (sintamos, durmamos). They are practised in part III.

Keep practising
