  • Mood is a property of verbs that shows the mood, or attitude, of the speaker. Mood is used to denote whether the speaker is stating or asserting a fact, asking a question, expressing a condition, or giving a command.
    In today's lesson, we will learn about the three moods of verbs: the indicative, the imperative, and the subjunctive.
    Examples are given.

    I read a poem titled Return of the Subjunctive. I had to look it up and found this vid. I am a retired inner city middle school teacher. In my years of teaching, I was never encouraged to teach grammar, spelling, or correct usage. It was all whole language. I admire the structure that is presented here. Among my better teaching moments are the times I taught traditional spelling and grammar on my own, unbeknownst to the Admin. Good for you

      I'm familiar with that poem. And I remember when whole language came on to the scene. We were told to put away grammar, spelling, and phonics books. Big mistake. Thank you for your comment.

      "Be that as it may" is the same as "nevertheless" and "far be it from me" is used to clarify to someone that you do not want to criticize or disagree with them.

    Please explain.please please

    • @thelearningdepot

      Him is an object pronoun that would come after the verb "want" and the infinitive "to do" is the direct object.

      @@durgaraobattula143 You're better off using saying: I suggest that he exercise. The verb suggest is tricky because it's not followed by an indirect object pronoun.

    By the way could you make a video on how many tenses each mood has, As far as I'm concerned the indicative has twelve tenses the imperative one and I'm clueless about the subjunctive

      Hi Aryan, the imperative tense has only the subject “you”. When you say to your friend “Come here” the subject (you) is implied. You are speaking to one person-singular. Likewise, if you are speaking to group of friends, you would also say “Come here” except the implied “you” is plural. That’s what is meant by having one subject both singular and plural. Hope this helps. 😊
