Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the present indicative instead of the present subjunctive.
Correct: Use subjunctive forms like 'vendas' or 'venda' after phrases like 'espero que' or 'dudo que'.
Why: These phrases trigger the subjunctive mood because they express subjectivity, doubt, or desire rather than a statement of fact.
Mistake: Forgetting the stem change for verbs that have one (though 'vendar' is regular).
Correct: For 'vendar', the forms are regular. For other verbs, remember to apply the stem change (e.g., 'poder' -> 'pueda').
Why: This is a general subjunctive rule; 'vendar' doesn't have a stem change, but it's a common pitfall for other verbs.
