What is the subjunctive mood?

This mood is used for hypothetical situations or to express suggestion, demand, or a wish.

For hypothetical situations and with "wish", the verb "to be" should always be used in the form "were". Example: If I were taller, I'd play basketball. / I wish I were taller.

To express suggestion or demand, the verb must be used in its base form. Even if the subject is "he, she, or it," the verb must not be changed. Example: I demand that he be arrested. / I suggest that he go to the doctor.
