determine whether it expresses a wish
Explanation: the subjunctive mood is used for wishes, hypothetical or contrary-to-fact situations, and for suggestions/requirements (e.g., "I wish I were taller," "I suggest that he go," "She demanded that he leave"). Look for words/phrases like "wish," "if (only)," "suggest/recommend/insist," or verb forms such as "were" for unreal conditions or the base verb after a demand/suggestion.
