Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the simple future instead of the conditional, e.g., 'Saborearé si tengo tiempo'.
Correct: Use the conditional for hypothetical situations: 'Saborearía si tuviera tiempo'.
Why: The conditional expresses hypothetical outcomes ('would'), while the future expresses certainty ('will').
Mistake: Forgetting the accent on the conditional endings (e.g., 'saborearia').
Correct: All conditional endings require an accent: 'saborearía', 'saborearías', 'saborearía', 'saborearíamos', 'saborearíais', 'saborearían'.
Why: The accent marks the stressed syllable, which falls on the 'i' before the ending.
