Which sentence uses the subjunctive mood correctly?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. If I were you, I would apologise to the whole team.
Answer: were ... would. Why not the others: 'Was' is not used for unreal conditions; 'am' is present; 'will' does not match.
- Step 1: For wishes or unreal conditions, use 'were' for every subject.
- Step 2: The main clause then uses 'would'.
