Keep the main clause and dependent subjunctive aligned in time
Core relationship:a present main-clause phrase pattern commonly aligns with a present subjunctive dependent clause. In the exact Module 66 learned contrasts, a past main-clause phrase pattern aligns with an imperfect-subjunctive dependent clause.
Quiero que venga.
I want him/her to come.
I want him/her to come.
→
Quería que viniera.
I wanted him/her to come.
I wanted him/her to come.
Me alegra que esté aquí.
I am glad he/she is here.
I am glad he/she is here.
→
Me alegró que estuviera allí.
I was glad he/she was there.
I was glad he/she was there.
No creo que pueda.
I do not think he/she can.
I do not think he/she can.
→
No creía que pudiera.
I did not think he/she could.
I did not think he/she could.
practice For now:these three contrast pairs are the learned first sequence-of-tenses practice. Do not generalize new past-sequence combinations yet, even if a broader Spanish rule might make them possible.
What stays the same:the conversation relationship—want, reaction, or nonbelief.What shifts:the main-clause time and the dependent subjunctive form.

Choose Time and Meaning Together
Recall the three exact Module 66 sequence pairs among patterns you learned in Modules 59–65. No new Spanish is introduced in review practice.
Part 3 — Compare Spanish and EnglishEnglish past reporting can leave the dependent form less visibly changed. In the Spanish you learned sequence, a present trigger commonly aligns with present subjunctive and a past trigger commonly aligns with imperfect subjunctive.
