Quote:
I am sometimes confused by the two, seemingly different, teachings that (1) the use of the subjunctive is a grammatical construction, used only when the construct of the phrase/sentence calls for it, and that (2) the use of the subjunctive indicates certain "doubt" or "lack of certainty". Well, it was a quote from another author ... and I NEVER notice the subjunctive in English. It wasn't taught to us like that..................
