Mistake: Using the conditional for a simple future action.
Correct: Use the future tense ('fundirá') for actions that will definitely happen. Use the conditional ('fundiría') for hypotheticals or polite requests.
Why: The conditional expresses uncertainty or hypothetical outcomes.
Mistake: Confusing the conditional with the imperfect subjunctive.
Correct: While both deal with hypotheticals, the conditional describes the *result* ('I would melt'), and the imperfect subjunctive describes the *condition* ('if I could').
Why: They often appear together but serve different grammatical roles.
