Repasemos 1 - Talking about future activities: future tense
|
In Spanish there are 3 ways to do this
|
|
1) Using the present tense -
Mañana se casa Ana María. Ana María will get married tomorrow. |
The speaker using the present tense in this way has a sense of certainty that the action will happen.
|
|
2) Using ir + a+ infinitive
Nosotras vamos a ser abogadas. We are going to be lawyers. |
This form is used to express actions in the near or distant future. It is commonly used in everyday speech as an alternative to the future tense.
|
|
3) Using the future tense
El comité se reunirá con los líderes de las pandillas urbanas. |
The committee will meet with the leaders of the urban gangs.
|
|
When to use the future tene:
|
Three situations:
|
|
1) To express a future event
Estos jóvenes recibirán una beca. |
These young people will receive a scholarship.
|
|
2) To make promises
Hoy, sin falta, pasaré por tu oficina. |
Today without fail, I'll come by your office.
|
|
3) To get other people to do things
El comité le pedirá al intendente que aumente el número de policias en las calles. |
The committee will ask the mayor to increase the number of policemen on the street.
In this case, the verb in the future tense appears in the main clause, and the present subjunctive appears in the dependent clause. Note that only verbs that introduce the subjunctive are used in this way. |

Repasemos 2: Talking about conditions - conditional tense
|
To express conditions, give advice, or make requests, the conditional mod is used. It is equivalent in English of "would" or "could" + verb
3 Uses: |
|
1) To express polite requests
¿Podría decirme cuál es el índice de la natalidad en España? |
Could you tell me what the birth rate is in Spain?
|
|
2) To give advice after expressions such as: "Yo que tú..."(If I were you) and "En tu lugar..."(in your place)
Yo que tú dejaría a las niñas con el padre. |
If I were you, I would leave the girls with the father.
|
|
3) To get other people to do things
Me gustaría que tú trabajar aquí. |
I would like you to work here.
In this case, the conditional appears in the independent clause and the imperfect subjunctive appears in the dependent clause. |
|
To form the regular conditional tense, add the following endings to the infinitive
~the same for all three verb endings~ |
yo ==> ía
tú ==> ías él/la/ud. ==> ía *nosotros ==> íamos ellos/ellas/uds. ==> ían |
|
defender
|
defendería
defenderías defendería defenderíamos defenderían |
