Using the Indicative for Commands

In Spanish, the 'nosotros' (we) command, meaning 'Let's...', uses the same form as the present subjunctive: 'entremos'.

The 'Let's' Command

To say 'Let's not enter,' simply put 'no' before the word: 'No entremos aquí' (Let's not enter here).

Making it Negative

Extremely common, used daily to suggest collective action.

Mixing Subjunctive and Indicative

'Entremos' is the special form of the verb used when expressing wishes, doubts, or emotions about the action of 'us entering.' This form follows certain trigger phrases like 'Quiero que...' (I want that...).

The Subjunctive Mood

Look for phrases expressing influence ('pedir que'), emotion ('alegrarse de que'), or impersonal necessity ('es necesario que'). These typically require the subjunctive form like 'entremos' in the second part of the sentence.

Trigger Phrases

Even though this form is called 'Present Subjunctive,' it often refers to actions that will happen in the future, like 'I want that we enter tomorrow.'

Timing Tip

Commonly used in complex sentences expressing desire, necessity, or doubt.

'Entremos' is the 'nosotros' form of the verb 'entrar' (to enter). It primarily means 'Let's enter' (command) or 'that we enter' (subjunctive form used after verbs of desire or necessity). Learn its conjugation and usage tips.
