The proposed manual is intended for students who already have a basic knowledge of morphology and syntax of the German language. It includes theoretical and practical material on one of the complex topics of German grammar, namely, on the topic "Conjunctives" .. When comparing the functional features of the Russian subjunctive and the German conjunctiva, it turns out that the range of functions of the latter is much wider than that of the corresponding inclination in the Russian language, and the study of this topic is difficult to master. Along with the theoretical part, the manual contains extensive practical material - exercises that contribute to the successful mastering of grammatical material. The manual is intended for full-time and part-time students, teachers and students of German language courses .
