Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present tense instead of the future for a planned event.
Correct: For actions that *will* happen, use the future tense. E.g., 'Celebraremos', not 'Celebramos'.
Why: The present tense usually describes current or habitual actions, while the future tense is for events yet to occur.
Mistake: Forgetting the accent on the 'yo' form.
Correct: The 'yo' form is 'celebraré' with an accent on the final 'e'.
Why: The accent is necessary to indicate the stressed syllable and distinguish it from other verb forms.
