    Smile Can anyone translate this into a present subjunctive form?

    "My ideal guy is tall, nice, and funny. He has to be able to make me laugh. He is good at singing and playing guitar. His hair isn't long. He smiles a lot. He loves playing sports. He is friendly towards my friends and also my family. He likes to talk with me on the phone. He can dance well. He spends time with me for fun. He enjoys reading and writing. He listens to me. He knows how to help me."

    I need it to be in present subjunctive form. Please? Thank you so much.

    Hola Coconut, I'll try to help:

    Mi ideal de tipo es que sea alto, buenmozo y divertido, que pueda hacerme reír, que pueda cantar y tocar la guitarra, que no tenga el pelo largo, que sonría, que guste de los deportes, que sea amable para con mis amigos y también para con mi familia, que disfrute hablar conmigo por teléfono, que baile bien, que quiera estar conmigo sólo por eso, que guste de leer y escribir, que me escuche, que sepa cómo ayudarme.

    Even though the sentence looks rather long, I prefer commas instead of fullstop for the Spanish translation, hope it helps!

    Olga
