Subjuntivo o indicativo - oraciones relativas
 
Hello, I'm a spanish learner, currently at B1 level, and having many doubts about the use of subjuntivo. I need some help with these sentences:
1. A mí no me gusta la gente que grita/grite a todas horas.
2. Aquí no hay nadie que sabe/sepa inglés.
3. Me gustaría reservar una habitacion que no da/dé a la calle principal. Es que el ruido me molesta mucho.

I can't determine which mode to use in these sentences, so if somebody could explain me it would be great. Gracias!

We cannot solve the exercise for you, but I hope these hints will be useful:

1) Although the speaker is expressing a preference, he/she is describing people who are actually noisy.

2) This one is a bit hard: When the contrary of a negative statement can be expressed with the indicative mood (in this example: "Aquí todos hablan inglés"), you need the subjunctive.

3) This is expressing a preference and this is mostly expressed through a subjunctive.


You can ask specific questions. We'll help you. :)
