Multiple subjunctives in one sentence?
This question relates to:French lesson "Conjugate savoir in the subjunctive present in French (Le Subjonctif Présent)"
Asked 1 year ago
You have to look at the verbs triggering the subjunctive. They are je veux (triggering the subjunctive saches) and il veut (triggering the subjunctive viennes).
Je veux que tu saches qu'il veut que tu viennes. -- I want you to know that he wants you to come.
