Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present indicative instead of imperative for commands.
Correct: Use 'Junta' for 'you' (tú), not 'juntas'.
Why: The imperative forms are distinct from the indicative, especially for tú and vosotros.
Mistake: Forgetting the 'nosotros' form is subjunctive-like.
Correct: Use 'juntemos' not 'juntamos' for 'let's join'.
Why: 'Juntemos' is the present subjunctive used for 'let's' commands.
