Hello grg,

A warm welcome to the SpanishDict forum smile

This is obviously an exercise in practising the subjunctive mood:

I will check and correct your answers because you have already made an attempt to do your homework! wink

1.Should be tomemos

2.Should be in the indicative: conducen not subjunctive: conduzcan.

If the sentence were written in the affirmative, ie: Es necesario que ...then the subjunctive would need to be used to express a valued judgement! Sorry I got this one wrong first time! :(

3.Should be aprenda

4.Should be arregles

5.Correct: se acuesten

6.Correct: sepas

7.Correct: almorcemos.

8.Should be se mude.

It might help you to remember that ar verbs take 'e' in their present subjunctive endings: so the verb tomar when conjugated for the first person plural: 'we', becomes tomemos in your example.

and er and ir verbs take 'a', so... the verb aprender when conjugated for 1st person singular 'I' becomes aprenda.

I hope this helps smile
