What's the difference between indicative and subjunctive?

Indicative


Definition:

  • (a.) Pointing out; bringing to notice; giving intimation or knowledge of something not visible or obvious.
  • (a.) Suggestive; representing the whole by a part, as a fleet by a ship, a forest by a tree, etc.
  • (n.) The indicative mood.

Example Sentences:

  • (7) The predicted non-Lorentzian line shapes and widths were found to be in good agreement with experimental results, indicating that the local orientational order (called "packing" by many workers) in the bilayers of small vesicles and in multilamellar membranes is substantially the same.
  • (8) These studies led to the following conclusions: (a) all the prominent NHP which remain bound to DNA are also present in somewhat similar proportions in the saline-EDTA, Tris, and 0.35 M NaCl washes of nuclei; (b) a protein comigrating with actin is prominent in the first saline-EDTA wash of nuclei, but present as only a minor band in the subsequent washes and on washed chromatin; (c) the presence of nuclear matrix proteins in all the nuclear washes and cytosol indicates that these proteins are distributed throughout the cell; (d) a histone-binding protein (J2) analogous to the HMG1 protein of K. V. Shooter, G.H.
  • (9) Electrophysiologic studies are indicated in patients with sustained paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation or aborted sudden death.
  • (10) In cardiac tissue the adenylate system is not a good indicator of the energy state of the mitochondrion, even when the concentrations of AMP and free cytosolic ADP are calculated from the adenylate kinase and creatine kinase equilibria.
  • (11) Comparison of wild type and the mutant parD promoter sequences indicated that three short repeats are likely involved in the negative regulation of this promoter.
  • (12) Results indicated a .85 probability that Directive Guidance would be followed by Cooperation; a .67 probability that Permissiveness would lead to Noncooperation; and a .97 likelihood that Coerciveness would lead to either Noncooperation or Resistance.
  • (13) The data from this experience as well as others previously reported can yield prognostic indicators of survival in cases of accidental hypothermia.
  • (14) The data indicate that ebselen is likely to be useful in the therapy of inflammatory conditions in which reactive oxygen species, such as peroxides, play an aetiological role.
  • (15) This induction is sensitive to actinomycin D but not to protein synthesis inhibitor puromycin, indicating an effect of estradiol at the transcriptional level, possibly mediated by the estrogen receptor.
  • (16) Quantitative determinations indicate that the amount of PBG-D mRNA is modulated both by the erythroid nature of the tissue and by cell proliferation, probably at the transcriptional level.
  • (17) A disease in an IgD (lambda) plasmocytoma is described, where after therapy with Alkeran and prednisone a disappearance of all clinical and laboratory findings indicating an activity could be observed.
  • (18) Our results indicate that increasing the delay for more than 8 days following irradiation and TCD syngeneic BMT leads to a rapid loss of the ability to achieve alloengraftment by non-TCD allogeneic bone marrow.
  • (19) gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate release from the treated side was higher than the control value during the first 2-3 h, a result indicating an important role of glial cells in the inactivation of released transmitter.
  • (20) These results indicate that astrocytes possess bradykinin receptors and that these are predominantly of the B2 subtype.

Subjunctive


Definition:

  • (a.) Subjoined or added to something before said or written.
  • (n.) The subjunctive mood; also, a verb in the subjunctive mood.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) A new component of anti-AChE myopathy was recognized: progressive swelling of chromatin in subjunctional muscle nuclei.
  • (2) The subjunctive is more common in American than British English, often in formal or poetic contexts – in the song If I Were a Rich Man, for example.
  • (3) At the stage in which subjunctional components, including soleplate nuclei, were severely damaged (day 7), the true nuclear inclusions were frequently associated with the disrupted nuclear envelope (fragmentation, vesiculation etc.)
  • (4) Question 41 assumes there is a “subjunctive” in English.
  • (5) 3 Don't get in a bad mood over the subjunctive The subjunctive is a verb form (technically, "mood") expressing hypothesis, typically to indicate that something is being demanded, proposed, imagined, or insisted: "he demanded that she resign", and so on.
  • (6) The results are consistent with the view that transmitter released from noradrenergic vasoconstrictor nerves acts primarily on subjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors.
  • (7) These changes were dose and time dependent and were restricted primarily to the subjunctional myofibrillar apparatus and membrane-bound organelles.
  • (8) Asymmetric synaptic contacts onto cell bodies and dendrites were often defined by the presence of subjunctional dense bodies associated with the postsynaptic membrane.
  • (9) No alterations in the number of subjunctional bodies were observed.
  • (10) The subjunctional membranes of both gamma and beta bag1 endings were typically smooth in contour.
  • (11) About a quarter of the synapses also possessed additional specializations, postsynaptic, or subjunctional bodies.
  • (12) We know it's rubbish, but we allow our hopes to be raised, only to witness 190 nations arguing through the night over the use of the subjunctive in paragraph 286.
  • (13) The writer Somerset Maugham, who in 1949 announced "the subjunctive mood is in its death throes", might be surprised to see my son Freddie's bookshelf, which contains If I Were a Pig … (Jellycat Books, 2008).
  • (14) The few synapses observed are asymmetric, some with subjunctional dense bodies.

  • (16) Asymmetric contacts were frequently characterized by the presence of subjunctional dense bodies.
  • (17) Toxin A-induced structural alterations of villus tip absorptive cells were strikingly similar to those induced by the actin-binding agent cytochalasin D. Specifically, cells displayed constricted subjunctional zones, flared microvillus brush borders, condensation of microfilaments in the zone of the perijunctional actomyosin ring, and breakdown of intercellular tight junctions.
  • (18) Subjunctional bodies are present at both axosomatic and axodendritic synapses.
  • (19) The journalist Simon Heffer is a fan of the subjunctive, recommending such usages as "if I be wrong, I shall be defeated".
