Abstract

Normally, it is believed that the German Konjunktiv corresponds to the Spanish subjunctive. To verify this hypothesis, we have analyzed the two forms of this German verbal mode in journalistic texts, such as the news and the reportage. For konjunktiv I, it is almost always used to express Indirect Speech and corresponds to indicative tenses in Spanish. Konjunktiv II is usually translated as subjunctive or conditional.
