_a._ The present subjunctive is formed from the present stem.
_b._ The mood sign of the present subjunctive is -e:- in the first
conjugation and -a:- in the others. It is shortened in the usual
places (cf. Sec. 12), and takes the place of the final vowel of the
stem in the first and third conjugations, but not in the second and
fourth.
_c._ The personal endings are the same as in the indicative.
_d._ In a similar way inflect the present subjunctive of /curo\,
/iubeo\, /sumo\, /iacio\, /munio\.
_345._ The present subjunctive of the irregular verb /sum\ is inflected
as follows:
{ 1. sim { 1. si:mus
SING. { 2. si:s PLURAL { 2. si:tis
{ 3. sit { 3. sint
_346._ The Indicative and Subjunctive Compared.
1. The two most important of the finite moods are the indicative and
the subjunctive. The indicative deals with facts either real or
assumed. If, then, we wish to assert something as a fact or to inquire
after a fact, we use the indicative.
2. On the other hand, if we wish to express a _desire_ or _wish_, a
_purpose_, a _possibility_, an _expectation_, or some such notion, we
must use the subjunctive. The following sentences illustrate the
difference between the indicative and the subjunctive ideas.
INDICATIVE IDEAS SUBJUNCTIVE IDEAS
1. _He is brave_
