Common Mistakes
Mistake: Confusing conditional with future tense.
Correct: Use 'anularía' for a hypothetical 'would cancel', not 'anulará' for a definite 'will cancel'.
Why: The conditional expresses hypothetical or polite actions, while the future expresses certainty or probability.
Mistake: Forgetting the accent on conditional endings.
Correct: Forms like 'anularía' and 'anularías' require an accent on the 'í'.
