catchy subjunctive dissertation title?
¡Hola a todos!
A challenge for you all!
Escribo una disertación sobre el subjuntivo en inglés y en español.
I need a catchy title - preferably in Spanish for it.
Perhaps something that conveys the confusion and frustration that native English speakers can feel when dealing with the subjunctive in Spanish?
Everything I am coming up with sounds rubbish!
I think it will be really interesting to see what people come up with.... ![]()
EDIT:
For example: I have named one of my chapters:
El subjuntivo en español - Es una lástima que el subjuntivo no es más fácil* (the error is deliberate to reflect typical mistakes made by learners)
Just wondering if there is a funny phrase associated with the subjunctive or anything that Spanish speakers note about native English speakers using the subjunctive, you know?

My subjective reaction to the Spanish subjunctive
(the subjunctive is sometimes called a subjective mood at it represents an emotional reaction to an act rather than informing us about the act)
An English connotation of subjective is personal.
El Subjuntivo: Una Pesadilla
La Pesadilla del Subjuntivo
Puedes Correr, Pero No Puedes Esconder
Un Dolor de Cabeza
Hi Kirsten, unless you come up with a title yourself as an example, this will be just guessing.
