Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present tense instead of the future.
Correct: For actions that will definitely happen, use the future: 'Declararemos', not 'Declaramos'.
Why: The present tense is for actions happening now or habitual actions, not for future certainty.
Mistake: Forgetting the accent on the 'yo' form.
Correct: The 'yo' future is 'declararé', with an accent on the final 'é'.
Why: The accent indicates the stressed syllable and distinguishes it from other potential forms.
