Como se usa entendemos vs. entendamos en un contexto?

Pienso que la traducción es algo así:

entendemos = we understand

entendamos = understanding

Pero quiero saber como se usan estas palabras en un contexto en español.

Gracias!

    Entendamos es presente de subjuntivo:

    "No quieren que entendamos que no nos beneficia"

    "They don't want us to understand that it doesn't benefit us"

    "Cuando lo entendamos, te lo diremos"

    "As soon as we understand it, we'll tell you"

    No equivale a "understanding" para nada, ya que understanding es un participio presente:

    "My understanding of the procedures..."

    "Mi conocimiento de los procedimientos"

    Realmente el subjuntivo es una de las partes mas dificiles del castellano.

    Por su parte, "entendemos" es indicativo:

    "Lo entendemos, pero no lo aceptamos"

    "We understand it, but we don't accept it"
