Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present tense instead of the future tense for a future action.
Correct: For actions that *will* happen, use the future tense: 'dispersarán', not 'dispersan'.
Why: The present tense refers to current actions or habits, while the future tense specifically refers to events yet to occur.
Mistake: Forgetting the accent on future tense endings like 'dispersará'.
Correct: Remember the accent on the final vowel for most future tense forms: dispersará, dispersarás, dispersará, dispersaremos, dispersaréis, dispersarán.
Why: These accents are part of the correct spelling and pronunciation of the future tense.
