Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the future tense instead of the conditional for hypotheticals, like 'Interactuaré si tengo tiempo'.
Correct: Use the conditional for hypotheticals: 'Interactuaría si tuviera tiempo'.
Why: The conditional expresses what 'would' happen, dependent on a condition, while the future expresses what 'will' happen.
Mistake: Confusing the conditional 'interactuaría' with the imperfect 'interactuaba'.
Correct: The conditional form is 'interactuaría', with an 'r' before the ending.
Why: These are different tenses with distinct meanings and conjugations.
