Missing text Posted Jan 31, 2008 1:26 UTC (Thu) by JoeBuck (subscriber, #2330) [Link] The subjunctive tense is rapidly disappearing from English, just like the word "whom", which is mostly gone from American English by now.
Missing text Posted Jan 31, 2008 8:34 UTC (Thu) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] British English too. Like `whom', it's at that `last stand of the dying feature' stage, being seen as pretentious and overly formal.
Missing text Posted Jan 31, 2008 14:17 UTC (Thu) by dskoll (subscriber, #1630) [Link] The subjunctive tense Must... resist... pedantic... impulse.... AAARGH!!! You mean the subjunctive mood, of course....
