To form a subjunctive, you form it the same way as usted commands. Put the verb in the yo form, drop the o, and if it's -ar, switch it to -er. If it's -er or -ir, switch it to -ar. You use the subjunctive to state the uncertain, unlike the indicative which states fact.
Ex: Es necesario que hagas ejercicio.
It is necessary that you do exercise.
Note that while it is necessary for a person to exercise, it is uncertain if they will.
Examples of subjunctives:
hablar: (hable; hables; hable; hablemos; hablen)
comer: (coma; comas; coma; comamos; coman)
escribir: (escriba; escribas; escriba; escribamos; escriban)
Don't forget about irregulars like llegar to llegue, buscar to busque, and cruzar to cruce!
