Reading: 1 min + PDF exercise Published: 24 May 2017

The theory

A summary table with the structures that always take the subjunctive when we try to influence others: offering help (¿Quieres que…?), giving orders (Te pido que), forbidding (Te prohíbo que), asking permission (¿Te importa que…?), apologising (Perdona que) and giving advice (Te aconsejo que). Then you practise with everyday situations.


In this publication, you will find a summary table and exercises on how to express actions such as offering help, giving orders, prohibiting, asking for permission, apologizing, or giving advice in Spanish.
