Questions & Answers about Es lógico que el contador revise el ingreso de ayer.
Why is the verb revise in the subjunctive instead of the indicative revisa?
The phrase Es lógico que (It is logical that) is an impersonal expression that states an opinion or evaluation. In Spanish, when you express an opinion or judgment about an action using [Ser] + [adjective] + que, the verb that follows must be in the subjunctive. That is why we use revise instead of the normal present tense revisa.
I learned that "accountant" is contable. Is contador just a synonym?
Does ingreso only mean "income"?
Why isn't there a "personal a" before el contador since he is a person?
You only use the "personal a" when a specific person is the direct object of a verb (the one receiving the action). In this clause (que el contador revise...), the accountant is the subject—he is the one doing the reviewing. Therefore, no "personal a" is needed.
