71. Adverbs
Most adverbs are formed by adding -mente to the feminine singular form of the adjective. However,
two common adverbs that do not end in -mente are despacio (slowly) and demasiado (too much).

72. Passive Voice
In passive sentences, the subject receives the action of the verb. In active sentences, the subject
does the action. However, the meaning of both sentences is the same. The passive voice in Spanish
is formed with a tense of ser and a past participle. Ser should be in the same tense as the verb in its
corresponding active sentence. The agent is expressed by por if the action is physical; and by de if
mental. The past participle agrees in gender and number with the subject. If you use estar instead of
ser, the past participle is called the predicate adjective and it is not a passive sentence.
Active El viento destrue la casa. The wind destroys the house.
Passive La casa fue destruida por el viento. The house was destroyed by the wind.
Predicate Adjective Cuando la vi, la casa estaba
destruida.
When I saw it, the house was
destroyed.
El nino fue castigado por su padre. The boy was punished by his father.
Rosa es amada de todos. Rose is loved by everyone.
73. Uses of the Infinitive

76. Conditional Tense
The conditional tense expresses an idea dependent on a condition that is either expressed or
understood. It can also refer to the past when it expresses probability.
To form the present conditional, add these endings to the infintive for all three types of verbs. Verbs
that had irregular stems in the future tense, also use that stem for the conditional tense.

80. Subjunctive Mood
The subjunctive is not used very often in English, but is is very common and important in Spanish.
Some command forms are actually the subjunctive, so the formation of the present subjunctive should
not be too difficult.
Present Subjunctive
-ar verbs
-er and -ir
-e
-es
-e
-emos
-éis
-en
-a
-as
-a
-amos
-áis
-an
The past subjunctive is formed from the third person plural of the preterite. Remove the -on ending,
and add these new endings:
Past Subjunctive
all verbs
11073037.001.png
-a
-as
-a
-
amos
-ais
-an
An accent is added to the stem vowel as well in the first person plural form. Instead of hablaramos, it is
habláramos; instead of comieramos, it is comiéramos, etc. Note that there is another way to form the
past subjunctive (a different set of endings), but the endings given are used more often.
The present perfect subjunctive is formed with the present subjunctive of haber and the past participle
of the main verb. Similarly, the past perfect subjunctive is formed with the past subjunctive of haber
and the past participle of the main verb.
Present perfect subjunctive
