Using correct word for subjunctive.

Question

Hello, I tried to make the best words fit below in the quoation marks. I know some of these are not quite right and i'm having trouble deciding the correct words. I have a verb bank above the sentences. thanks alot.

empezar enfermarse insistir preferir temer

Mi madre "prefiera" en que "empiece" una dieta. Yo "prefiera" hacer ejercicio para adelgazar. Yo la comprendo: ella "insista" que yo "empiece".

"a lot" is two words. "alot" does not mean "a lot". :-) - pesta, Nov 10, 2010

Answer 1

please remember you have to use the 5 verbs provided.

Mi madre "insiste" en que "empiece" una dieta. Yo "prefiero" hacer ejercicio para adelgazar. Yo la comprendo: ella "teme" que yo "me enferme¨

Answer 2

I would have chosen to fit the words in the following way:

Mi madre "insiste" en que "empiece" una dieta. Yo "prefiero" hacer ejercicio para adelgazar. Yo la comprendo: ella "prefiere" que yo "empiece".

The narrative begins with mother insisting on a diet, then each side expresses a preference. I think that we used preferir twice, and did not use temer.

You are right, Pesta. I didn't pay attention at the words. Then, I think we could use all of them if we finish "Ella teme que yo enferme" - cogumela, Nov 10, 2010
