1 Emilio Mejia

2  The “purpose clause” (a dependent clause) is used to show the purpose or intention of the action of the main verb in the sentence (in the independent clause). This construction is meant to show intention, not to state whether something actually happens or not. The purpose clause answers the question "Why?" or "For what reason?", rather than "What?".  If the subjunctive mood is used in a “purpose” (or in a “result”) clause, then the action should not be thought of as a possible result, but should be viewed as the stated outcome that will happen (or has happened) as a result of another stated action. The use of the subjunctive is not to indicate that something “may” or “might” result from a given action, but it is stating the “purpose of” or “reason for” an action.

3  Main clause + Conjunction + Subordinate clause  Adverbial Clause: Word  Automatically use Subjunctive  AAA SPACES  (AUTOMATICALLY) SUBJUNCTIVE

4  There are adverbial clauses that are always followed by the subjunctive because they always indicate a pending/hypothetical action or state.  Antes de que - before A fin de que - so that/in order that A no ser que - unless Sin que - without  Para que - so that/in order that A menos que – unless Con tal de que – provided that En caso de que – in case Siempre que – Provided that
