Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present indicative instead of the present subjunctive.
Correct: Use 'transites' for 'tú' in contexts of doubt or desire, not 'transitas'.
Why: Certain trigger phrases (like 'espero que', 'dudo que') require the subjunctive mood to express non-factual or subjective situations.
Mistake: Forgetting the subjunctive for impersonal expressions.
Correct: After expressions like 'es importante que', use the subjunctive: 'Es importante que transiten'.
Why: Impersonal expressions often signal the need for the subjunctive mood.
