Superlative subjunctive constructions
I've come across the following in a book I'm reading:
"Eran las mejores personas que podrías encontrar en el mundo." Were I writing this sentence I would have used the imperfect subjunctive rather than the conditional: "Eran las mejores personas que pudieses encontrar en el mundo." Which is correct? And if both are, what are the differences in meaning? Thanks! |
