Actually, cantara is the allomorphic form of cantase. Both of the forms have a grammatical value of the imperfect of the subjunctive mood. The modal alternation in the construction quiso que cantase / cantara is discussed. The material used for the purpose of the study comes from the “Corpus Diacrónico del Español” (CORDE) of the Spanish Royal Academy (RAE) and comprises the period from 1580 to 1930.</p> ER -
