Document Summary
The verb in the clause that follows the softened expression uses the same verb form as the command. However, the endings of the verbs change to reflect who should complete the action. The verb forms are called the subjunctive mood, and can be either past or present tense. Forms of present subjunctive are the same as the usted (polite) command forms plus the person/number endings. The ending will contain a different vowel from the present tense. *verbs that have different stems in the yo form of the present indicative use those same stems in the present subjunctive ex.

These types of phrases are often followed by the present indicative or present subjunctive, depensing on the phrase and its use. Every night we eat dinner together as son as dad gets home. a casa.
