基本上,虚拟语气可分为虚拟现在(Subjunctive Present)和虚拟过去(Subjunctive Past)两种;但它们和时态(Tenses)上所指的现在时态(Present Tense)和过去时态(Past Tense)是有所不同的。
二、虚拟过去(Subjunctive Past)
虚拟过去的动词无论在什么情况之下都要用过去复数形式。如:动词 be,在虚拟过去中要用 were。
2.1 过去时态(Simple Past):(右边为虚拟语气)
I worked ---- I worked
you worked ---- you worked
he worked ---- he worked
she worked ---- she worked
it worked ---- it worked
we worked ---- we worked
they worked ---- they worked
2.2 过去进行时态(Past Continuous):(右边为虚拟语气)
I was working ---- I were working (注意是 I were)
you were working ---- you were working
he was working ---- he were working (是 he were 喔)
she was working ---- she were working
it was working ---- it were working
we were working ---- we were working
they were working ---- they were working
2.3 过去完成时态(Past Perfect):(右边为虚拟语气)
I had worked ---- I had worked
you had worked ---- you had worked
he had worked ---- he had worked
she had worked ---- she had worked
it had worked ---- it had worked
we had worked ---- we had worked
they had worked ---- they had worked
(全部都用 had ! )
2.4 过去完成进行时态(Past Perfect Continuous):(右边为虚拟语气)
I had been working ---- I had been working
you had been working ---- you had been working
he had been working ---- he had been working
she had been working ---- she had been working
it had been working ---- it had been working
we had been working ---- we had been working
they had been working ---- they had been working
(全部都是 had been )
三、简单的祝愿和命令:
3.1 祝愿
1. May you be happy. (注意那个 be ) 祝你幸福。
2. May you have a good time.
3. May the friendship between us last long,
4. Have a good journey! 祝你旅途愉快!
3.2 命令
1.命令虚拟语气只能用在第二人称(you),而且通常省略主语(也就是you)。
2.句子尾通常加上感叹号:!
3.虚拟语气动词用一般现在时态(Simple Present),如:work, be , go
4.否定形式的命令语气,可用助动词 do,加上 not。
1. Work !
2. Work harder !
3. Be more alert ! (虚拟语气动词 Be)
4. You go out !
5. Do not work so hard. (do not 表示否定的虚拟语气)
6. Don"t be afraid. (口语中常用don"t 代替 do not)
四、在现在时态句里,用情态动词(Modal Verb)的过去时态
(could,might,should,would)表示说话人的谦虚、客气、有礼、委婉等:
1. Would you be kind enough to show me the way to the post office.
(情态动词 would,表示客气有礼)
2. It would be better for you not to stay up too late.(表示委婉)

表示:a.和现在的事实相反;
b.和过去的事实相反;
c.对将来的主观愿望。
