In Spanish, when you simply state a fact, you use the indicative mood. But when you react to a fact with emotion or give your opinion on it, you often need the subjunctive. This deck will teach you the key phrases for reacting and evaluating.

To express happiness about something someone else does, you can use the phrase 'me alegra que', which means 'I'm happy that'. This is always followed by the subjunctive. For example, 'Me alegra que vengas a la fiesta' means 'I'm happy that you are coming to the party'.
