Subjunctive in noun clauses
We use subjective verbs in sentences to express or stress wishes, importance, or
urgency. A subjunctive verb usually appears in a noun clause beginning with that, and
it uses the simple form of a verb that does not have the present, past or future forms.
The subjunctive verb is neither singular nor plural.
