2.08 | Subjunctive

Ellis & Yiuli
About this episode

Don't let the title intimidate you, this is the episode in which a lot of things are going to make sense! The subjunctive tense in Greek is one that Ellis was extremely happy with. A lot of the questions she had before got answered with this tense.

As always, we will try to teach it to you in a simple way. We'll make a lot of example sentences, and explain you the difference between the subjunctive simple and continuous.
