CUEVA-LOBELLE, Alberto. Approach to the Subjunctive Mood in Spanish from a Multivariable Perspective. Folios [online]. 2018, n.48, pp.73-84. ISSN 0123-4870.

This paper analyzes the subjunctive mood in Spanish from a multivariable and holistic perspective. More specifically, we analyze the pragmatic, semantic and syntactic characteristics of subjunctive constructions. To this end, we analyzed one hundred subjunctive constructions in light of some concepts of Dik's Functional Grammar (1997). The data was analyzed from a set of traits located on a prototypical scale. The traits were determined based on a preliminary analysis of the data, with the information reported in the literature and based on the theoretical model adopted.

Keywords : subjunctive; subordinates; modality; features.
