The rule: the present subjunctive

The subjunctive is not a monster: it is a signal. It says that what follows passes through a point of view: penso che sia un capolavoro does not state a fact, it states my opinion. It switches on after verbs of opinion, emotion, doubt and will.

The forms

parl-AREprend-EREfin-IRE
io / tu / lui / leiparliprendafinisca
noiparliamoprendiamofiniamo
voiparliateprendiatefiniate
loroparlinoprendanofiniscano
The three singular persons are identical: that is why the pronoun is often added (che io sia, che tu sia). Key irregulars: sia, abbia, vada, faccia, stia, dica, possa, voglia, debba.
