Moods
Grammar may make you moody but that's not what we're talking about now. Verbs have moods. Three of them. The three moods are indicative, imperative, and subjunctive.(1) indicative - Used most often. For situations when facts and reality, as opposed to guesses, wishes, or imagined situations, are the content of a sentence or clause.
(2) imperative - These verbs are direct commands.
(3) subjunctive - The action or state specified by the verb is the object of a wish, a hope or fear, a request, a conjecture, belief or hypothesis, or is for some reason unreal.
Test your knowledge!

Very good - I got 8/10 first shot then got the full 10 - my problem area was understanding that a request was not a command - hey, might explain some personal problems I experience!
ReplyDeleteThanks Clarissa!
I prefer imperative, subjunctive and indicative kinda confuse me :)
ReplyDeleteEek! I got one wrong!

Okay, this thing doesn't like me. I took it twice and got 0/10, so I'm like, okay, I know I'm right, so I chose the same answer from every question and still received 0/10. LOL. Now I know I'm not that BAD at Grammar, really. :) I'm going to log out and back in to see what happens. :)
ReplyDeleteI must have missed this segment in English class. I was probably drooling over or daydreaming about a boy. I'll be back later to study up! Thanks for the helpful post.
ReplyDeleteOh no, my mind does not work well on tests, do you have an oral version? :)

8 out of 10--darn it! Thanks for the post, though!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, I don't think I have any way of tracking the numbers. It's a good way to self-assess though.

ReplyDeleteThis is a good new series Clarissa.

cool. I got 8/10. Oopsies. I got myself mixed up.
ReplyDeleteHa! 9/10! Awesome. That was fun!
ReplyDeleteI somehow managed 9 of 10. Pretty good considering I never scored that well on an English grammer quiz in my life.
ReplyDeletegrr. 8/10. this was amazing! thanks so much! christy
ReplyDelete8/10, not bad! Imperative and indicative verbs = more interesting writing~ :D
ReplyDeleteOh dear, 7/10 first attempt. Hopefully I will remember what I've learnt!
ReplyDelete10/10, but that's because I'm a linguist and in French, Spanish and Italian there are actually different verb forms for each of these as opposed to English with just one.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little sad that I translated all the sentences to Spanish in my mind before I answered.
Thank you for the grammar reminders. They are much needed as my aging brain forgets more every day.
