Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present indicative 'procesas' instead of the imperative 'procesa' for tú.
Correct: The command for 'tú' is 'procesa', not 'procesas'.
Why: The 's' is dropped in the affirmative tú imperative for regular -ar verbs.
Mistake: Confusing the vosotros imperative 'procesad' with the infinitive 'procesar'.
Correct: The command for 'vosotros' is 'procesad', dropping the final 'r' and adding 'd'.
Why: This is a common pattern for regular -ar verbs in the vosotros imperative.
