Questions about translating with Subjunctive

votes
Hey
On a worksheet my Spanish teacher gave me, there are two questions that confused me a little. What we had to do for the section was translate the sentences into Spanish using the present subjunctive.
The two questions I'm not sure about our: 1) Let us call. 2)Let us insist.
would they be 1) Nos llame. 2) Nos insista.
thank you in advance for your help =)

Remember that if you use the subjunctive form of "nosotros" by itself, it is translated as "let's".
Therefore: "Hablemos! - Let's talk!..."Comamos! - Let's eat!"..."..."Salgamos! - Let's leave!", etc.
I'll let you come up with the proper subjunctive for your two verbs; I hope this reminder has helped!

I think it's Llamemos and Insistamos.
