Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the future tense ('transmitirá') instead of the conditional ('transmitiría') for hypotheticals.
Correct: Use 'transmitiría' for 'would transmit' and 'transmitirá' for 'will transmit'.
Why: The conditional expresses hypothetical or polite situations, while the future expresses certainty.
Mistake: Confusing conditional endings with imperfect subjunctive endings.
Correct: Conditional endings are '-ía, -ías, -ía...', while imperfect subjunctive endings are '-iera, -ieras, -iera...' or '-iese, -ieses, -iese...'.
Why: Both can express hypothetical ideas, but they function differently and are used in different sentence structures.
