Subjuntive and indicative in some verbs
Thank you for allowing me to ask a question.
I would like to know if there is any difference in meaning between the following sentences:
"I recommended her to buy the coat", and:
"I recommended (that)she(should)buy the coat".
I understand that many verbs as this can be used as a subjuntive and as a indicative to mean the same, as in this case. If so I suppose the only way to learn them is to memorize them as there is no rule to apply.
Thank you so much in advance!

There's no difference in meaning. ") is sometimes used, but I don't like it. It doesn't sound right to me.

There's no difference in meaning. I know that the first form ("I recommended her to...") is sometimes used, but I don't like it. It doesn't sound right to me.
