GRAMMAR

THE SUBJUNCTIVE MOOD IN COMPLEX SENTENCES.

1.Adverbial clauses of purpose.

When a clause of purpose is introduced by the conjunctions that, so that, in order that we find the analytical subjunctive with the mood auxiliary can/may if the principal clause refers to the present or future; could/might if the main clause refers to the past. Occasionally the mood auxiliary should is used.

e.g. She opens(will open) the window Вона відчиняє (відчинить)

that she may get a breath of вікно, щоб вдихнути свіжого

fresh air. повітря.

She opened the window that she Вона відчинила вікно, щоб

might get a breath of fresh air. вдихнути свіжого повітря.

If a clause of purpose is introduced by the conjunction lest we use the Present Suppositional or Subjunctive I in it. ‘Lest’ has a negative meaning (щоб не) and the verb in the subordinate clause is used in the affirmative form.

e.g. She closed the window lest she Вона закрила вікно, (should) catch a cold. щоб не застудитися.

2.Adverbial clauses of time and place

The Subjunctive Mood is used in adverbial clauses of time and place after the conjunctions whenever and wherever.

e.g. Whenever you may (might) come, Коли б ви не прийшли, you are welcome. ми завжди вам раді.

Wherever you may (might) look Куди б ви не глянули, you see the green fields. ви бачите зелені поля.

lest	(should) V
that / so that / in order that	may / can V might / could V should V
wherever / whenever	may / might
