The name also applies to subjunctives used when a subordinate clause is "so closely connected with an infinitive as to form an integral part of" it.
Again, the frequent recurrence of such examples gives rise to the occasional use of a dependent subjunctive with only a formal likeness to the main subjunctive, and no true modal feeling.Bennett (1910) contests this reasoning:[24] I am unable to admit the soundness of this reasoning.
To my mind Hale seems to do great violence to the interpretation of the passage above cited.
Much less can I admit the justice of Frank's statement that Hale's interpretation of the mood of velit is beyond dispute.
I am, therefore, inclined to believe that in the phenomenon under consideration we are to recognize a purely formal and mechanical attraction.Frank's study (1904) shows:[25] These favoring conditions are met in only about 37% of all the clauses dependent upon subjunctives.
