Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use the subjunctive tense for uncertain or subjective actions and ideas. Know that all subjunctive phrases start with the "que. Find the "stem" of verbs by dropping the "-ent" from the present "ils/elles" form. Add the subjunctive endings to complete the subjunctive tense. Know what verbs are irregular in the subjunctive. Memorize the the conjugations for "etre" and "avoir.

Answer: The subjunctive is used to express sentences like "I want you to do something," "It is necessary that we talk," or "she hopes that he ______." Unfortunately, there is no real subjunctive tense in English to compare with the French. The easiest way to comprehend the subjunctive is to read French and speak to French speakers, noting where they use it. The most common phrases that use subjunctive are "il faut que + pronoun + subjunctive verb" ("It's necessary that someone does (verb)") and "je veux que + pronoun + subjunctive verb" ("I want someone to do (verb)") " Before conjugating any subjunctive phrase, remember that the subjunctive tense always begins with "que," which translates as "that" or "who/whom." Examples: Il faut que, (it is necessary that), aimer mieux que (prefer that) This works for irregular verbs as well. Start conjugating subjunctive by dropping the "-ent" from the plural 3rd person verb form. The same same thing happens in English: the stem of "to walk," for example, is walk (walk, walks, walked, walking, etc.). Examples include: Parler: Parlent "parl" Finir: Finissent finniss" Entendre: Entendent "entend"' There is only one set of endings for the subjunctive tense in French. They are "-e, -es, -e, -ions, -iez, -ent." Remember to add the "que" as well. The following examples translate the phrase "it is necessary that (I, you, she, they, etc.) talks." First person: "-e." Il faut que je parle It is necessary that I talk. Second person: "-es." Il faut que tu parles It is necessary that you talk. Third person: "-e" Il faut que il parle it is necessary that he talks. Plural first person: "-ions." Il faut que nous parlions It is necessary that we talk. Plural second person: "-iez."Il faut que vous parliez It is necessary that you all talk. Plural third person: "-ent."Il faut que elles parlent It is necessary that they talk. Any verb that does not end in "-ent" in the present tense 3rd person plural ("They," or "Ils/Elles") has an irregular stem. Luckily, the endings are still the same. Some common verbs include: Faire fass-" Savoir &rarr: sach- Pouvoir puiss- Advanced Tip:' There are also several words that have two stems -- one singular and one plural. In this case, use the nous form, minus "-ons" and the same ending (Ex. buvoir &rarr: boiv & buv) " These are the only two verbs that are completely different in the subjunctive. Unfortunately, they are also some of the most common words in French. To conjugate them: Etre: je sois, tu sois, il soit, nous soyons, vous soyez, elles soient. Avoir: j'aie, tu aies, il ait, nous ayons, vous ayez, elles aient.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Spot clean using soapy water. Clean the coat by hand. Take your coat to a dry cleaner.

Answer: If your raincoat only has a small spill or area that needs cleaning, there's probably no need to subject it to the rigors of a machine wash. Mix a bit of mild liquid dish soap into some warm water until it is sudsy. Dip a clean sponge into the water. Gently wipe away at the spot you're interested in cleaning. Avoid using soaps containing perfumes, enzymes, or surfactants. Fill your tub or large sink with a shallow layer of hot water. Mix in mild soap flakes until the water is sudsy. Dunk the raincoat in the water. Take it out and place it on a clean, flat surface. Gently scrub the whole coat using a soft sponge or scrubbing brush. Start by scrubbing the outside of the coat, then move on to the inside. Dip your sponge or brush back into the soapy water regularly to prevent it from drying out. Drain the water after you're done cleaning the raincoat. Place the raincoat in the sink or tub and rinse it off with cool water from the faucet or showerhead. If the instructions provided by the care label seem onerous, or if you suspect that you are unequal to the task of cleaning it, you could choose to take the raincoat to a dry cleaners. If your raincoat has challenging care instructions, your dry cleaner may ask you to sign a waiver conceding that you will not hold them responsible for any damage that might occur in cleaning it. If your raincoat contains polyurethane, do not take it to the dry cleaner. Polyurethane might be listed on the manufacturer's label as "PU" or "PVC." Coats containing this material will crack and flake off when subjected to dry cleaning.
