« D'aussi loin que je me souvienne... » Pourquoi au subjonctif ?

« que je me souvienne... »

Il est évident que le verbe est au subjonctif, mais pour quelle raison ? Je ne le comprends pas.

Quelqu'un peut m'aider ?

Regular -ir conjugationSince verbs ending in -mir are conjugated differently than those ending in -ir, it would be useful to be able to see easily how regular -ir verbs are conjugated to compare them. Maybe a link to that lesson?

Bonjour AurélieIn the examples and resources ,the example:” Il faut ranger sa chambre “ should be translated “ He must tidy his room “ instead of “ you must tidy your room “ .I don’t understand why it is .Maybe it is mistake of typing? Thanks.

confusion over s'attendre à ce que

I am currently reading a book, "Comment avoir une orthographe qui mène au succès", written by Pr Robert Tocquet. He claims s'attendre à ce que is not correct, rather it is a barbarism. Here is what he wrote: S'attendre, consentir à ce que. (S'attendre, consentir que.)
Il y a quatre verbes qui se construisent avec que (et non à ce que) : aimer, s’attendre, consentir et demander.

You can download for free a copy of this great book here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4bdN-sQj8mOU1ZSYXB0aGVSVDQ/edit

However, any comments from the Kwiziq community about this.
