Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present tense instead of future.
Correct: For future actions, use the future tense: 'Accionaré' not 'Acciono'.
Why: The present tense describes current or habitual actions, while the future tense is specifically for events that will occur later.
Mistake: Forgetting the accent on future endings (e.g., 'accionare' instead of 'accionaré').
Correct: All future tense endings have an accent: 'accionaré', 'accionarás', 'accionará', etc.
Why: The accent marks the stressed syllable, which falls on the ending in the future tense.
