To connect a situation to its direct consequence, use the conjunction daí que (hence / that is why). The verb following daí que must always be in the subjunctive mood.
| I have insomnia, hence I sleep badly. | Eu tenho insónia, daí que durma mal. |
The established fact (tenho insónia) is in the indicative, but the consequence follows daí que and uses the present subjunctive (durma).
Here are more examples of daí que triggering the subjunctive:
| The disorder affects health, hence it is serious. | O distúrbio afeta a saúde, daí que seja grave. |
| She remains awake, hence she watches television. | Ela continua desperta, daí que veja televisão. |
| Your father snores a lot, hence your mother wakes up. | O teu pai ressona muito, daí que a tua mãe acorde. |
| I do not have any sleeping pill at all, hence I need help. | Não tenho sonífero nenhum, daí que precise de ajuda. |
