Common Mistakes

• Mistake: Confusing the conditional 'administraría' with the imperfect subjunctive 'administrara'.

  Correct: Use 'administraría' for 'would manage' and 'administrara' for hypothetical past conditions ('If I managed...').

  Why: The conditional expresses what would happen, while the imperfect subjunctive often introduces hypothetical scenarios.

• Mistake: Using the future tense instead of the conditional.

  Correct: Use 'administraría' for 'would manage', not 'administrará' (will manage).

  Why: The future tense speaks of certainty, while the conditional speaks of hypotheticals or politeness.
