I'm doing GCSE at the moment and I need lots of great high level spanish phrases
Thanks xx
Hey I've got some phrases that I collected from here
Subjunctive phrases (already formulated)
Que yo recuerde - As far as i remember
Que yo sepa - As far as i know
Cueste lo que cueste - Whatever the cost
Hagan lo que hagan - Whatever they do
Hagamos lo que hagamos - Whatever we do
Pase lo que pase - Whatever happens
Sea lo que sea - Be that as it may
Venga lo que venga
Quienquiera - Whoever
Dondequiera - Wherever
Comoquiera - However
Por ricos/pobres que sean - However rich/poor they may be
Si tuviera mucha influencia yo prohibiría la caza - If i had alot/much influence i would ban hunting. (Imp Sbj & Conditional)
Me da la impresión de que - I have the impression that Estoy de acuerdo/a - I agree.. Es probable/una lástima/vergonzoso/discutible que + SUBJUNCTIVE - Its probable/a shame/shameful/debatable (use with subj. as doubt exists for some and they are imprsonal expressions) Pensándolo bien, creo que - On further consideration I think that Pensándolo bien, NO CREO QUE + subjunctive - On further considerion, I do not think that... Ya que - Because/given that Tampoco - neither (use instead of "o" as o can be repetitive) Si yo fuese ellos/la gente/tú + imp subjunctive - If I was them/the people/you
Structure markers, e.g primeramente, para concluir, para empezar all help boost your mark where there is a mark for quality of response.
Ya sea - whether it be siquiera - at least ni siquiera - not even por otro lado - on the other hand
subjunctive triggers:
"es discutible que"- It is debatable that "es una lastima que"- It is a pity that "es vergonzoso que"-It is shameful that
also i like saying "que + subj verb" to mean 'let' i.e "que no vengan los inmigrantes a nuestro pais"
