Common Mistakes

  • Mistake: Using the present indicative instead of the present subjunctive.

    Correct: After expressions of doubt or desire like 'espero que' or 'dudo que', use 'disimules', 'disimule', etc.

    Why: Certain triggers require the subjunctive mood to express subjectivity.

  • Mistake: Using the infinitive after 'que'.

    Correct: Always conjugate the verb after 'que' when the subject changes: 'Espero que disimules...'.

    Why: When the subject of the main clause is different from the subordinate clause, a conjugated verb is needed.
