Question

select the correct answer
which verb form correctly completes the sentence?
dudo que él ____ el permiso para hacer el concierto.
a. pidas
b. pidan
c. pida
d. pidamos

Explanation:

In Spanish, the verb "dudar" (to doubt) is followed by a subjunctive clause. The subject here is "él" (he), so we need the subjunctive form of the verb "pedir" (to ask for) that matches the third - person singular. The subjunctive form of "pedir" for third - person singular is "pida". Let's analyze the options:

• Option A: "pidas" is the second - person singular (tú) subjunctive form, so it's incorrect.
• Option B: "pidan" is the third - person plural subjunctive form, incorrect for "él".
• Option C: "pida" is the third - person singular subjunctive form, which matches "él".
• Option D: "pidamos" is the first - person plural (nosotros) subjunctive form, incorrect.

Answer:

C. pida
