The perfect subjunctive is formed with a form of hätten or wären in the front bracket (F.B.) and the past participle in the end bracket (E.B.).
| | Front Bracket |
|
| End Bracket |
| Du wärest erfolgreich gewesen, wenn... |
| You would have been successful, if... |
| In Bayern hättet ihr mehr Berge gesehen. |
| You would have seen more mountains in Bavaria. |
After subordinating conjunctions, the front bracket follows the end bracket in the normal manner.
| Wenn ich das anders gemacht hätte... |
| If I had done that differently... |
| Wenn Sie früher gekommen wären... |
| If you had come earlier... |
