The subjunctive may also be used as the '''optative subjunctive''', expressing what the speaker wishes may happen, or wishes had happened.  These expresses a weaker or more generalised desire, as opposed to the desiderative mood.  Negation for this type uses '''''{{term|mū}}'''''.

Perhaps the most common use of the subjunctive is the '''conditional subjunctive'''.  When the subjunctive is used in a subordinate clause (with the verb moving to the final position), it may carry the meaning 'if, when, should, etc..'  This can be used both in finite verb forms, and with participles, the former being more popular in Old inscriptions and the later in Classical ones.  Negation for this type uses '''''{{term|mīm}}'''''.
