In Part I, you learned that the subjunctive mood is used whenever the speaker feels uncertain about the action of the sentence, or when the speaker is expressing a subjective opinion.
In Part II, you learned the basic rules for conjugating regular verbs and stem-changing verbs.
You learned that -ar verbs take the endings:
-e, -es, -e, -emos, -茅is, -en
And -er and -ir verbs take the endings:
-a, -as, -a, -amos, -谩is, -an
In Part III, you learned how to conjugate verbs in the present subjunctive that change orthographically.
