In lesson 15.9, which deals with the subjunctive, is the following
statement:
¡Esperemos que tenga buena voz!
translated as
Let's hope that he has a good voice.
I am confused as to why "esperemos" also seems to be conjugated in the present subjunctive. My understanding is that the verb that initiates the subjunctive, in this case esperar, is conjugated in the indicative, and the dependent clause is conjugated in the subjunctive. Am I missing something here or is the sentence written incorrectly?
Gracias,
Dan
