How do you conjugate regular verbs into their conditional form?
|
To conjugate regular -ar, -er and -ir verbs in the conditional, simply add one of the following to the infintive:
ía ías ía íamos íais ían |
|
|
When is the conditional tense used?
|
the conditional is used to express probability, possibility, wonder or conjecture, and is usually translated as would, could, must have or probably.
ex: The student said that he would study one more hour. (probability, possibility) What time could it have been? (wonder, conjecture) He must have been at home. (wonder, conjecture) We were probably busy when you called. (probability, possibility) |
|
|
What are some examples of the regular forms of the conditional being used?
|
El alumno dijo que estudiaría una hora más.
The student said that he would study one more hour. ¿Qué hora sería? What time could it have been? Estaría en su casa. He must have been at home. Estaríamos ocupados cuando llamaste. We were probably busy when you called. |
|
|
List some verbs that are irregular in the conditional sense and show their form.
|
decir (to say) - diría
hacer (to do) - haría poder (to be able) - podría salir (to go out, leave) - saldría tener (to have) - tendría haber - habría (there would be) |
|
|
when is the subjunctive used?
|
in hypothetical situations just like the conditional tense, but when it is including an IF clause.
ex: Si pudiera, iría contigo esta noche If I could, I´d go with you tonight No sé lo que Juan diría si supiera la verdad I dont know what Juan would say if he knew the truth (All of the regularities and irregularities of the ellos form in the preterite are the same in the past subjunctive) |
