Questions & Answers about ¡Es fantástico que el algoritmo analice los datos tan rápido!
Why do we use the subjunctive form analice instead of analiza here?
We use the subjunctive because of the phrase Es fantástico que. When you use an impersonal expression (like es plus an adjective) to evaluate or give an opinion about an action, the verb that follows que must be in the present subjunctive.
The verb is analizar, so why is it spelled analice with a c?
In Spanish, verbs ending in -zar change the z to a c before the letter e. Since the present subjunctive endings for -ar verbs start with e, analizar becomes analice. This spelling rule exists because Spanish spelling avoids the combination ze.
Why is tan used here instead of tanto?
