Questions & Answers about Creo que tu postura es muy polémica.
Why does this sentence use the indicative es instead of the subjunctive sea after creo que?
In Spanish, affirmative phrases expressing belief, like creo que (I think that), are followed by the indicative mood because you are stating what you consider to be a fact. You only use the subjunctive if you make the phrase negative, like no creo que sea (I don't think it is), which introduces doubt.
Does postura only refer to someone's physical posture?
Is polémica a false friend for the English word polemic?
Why is there no written accent on tu?
The word tu without a written accent is the possessive adjective meaning your, which we see here in tu postura. You only use the accent mark on tú when it is the subject pronoun meaning you.
