Which sentence correctly uses the future tense to indicate a prediction?
I am going to the store tomorrow.
I went to the store tomorrow.
I will go to the store tomorrow.
I would go to the store tomorrow.
The sentence 'I will go to the store tomorrow.' uses the future simple form to indicate a prediction about a future event. It correctly employs 'will' to express a future action, unlike the other options.
Identify the sentence that correctly uses a conditional form to express a hypothetical situation.
If I win the lottery, I travel around the world.
If I had won the lottery, I would travel around the world.
If I won the lottery, I would travel around the world.
If I will win the lottery, I would travel around the world.
Option A correctly uses the conditional mood by pairing the simple past in the if”clause with 'would' in the main clause, which is the standard structure for expressing hypothetical situations. The other alternatives mix tenses or use incorrect forms.
Which Spanish sentence correctly uses the conditional tone for a polite request?
¿Has abierto la ventana?
¿Abrirás la ventana?
¿Podrías abrir la ventana?
¿Abres la ventana?
Option A is correct because it employs the conditional form 'podrías' to make the request polite and less direct. The other options use the present, future, or perfect forms, which do not convey the same courteous tone.
Select the sentence that correctly contrasts a future possibility with a condition.
If it rained, we would cancel the picnic.
If it rained, we will cancel the picnic.
If it rains, we will cancel the picnic.
If it rains, we would cancel the picnic.
Option A uses the correct first conditional structure by combining the present simple in the if”clause with the future simple in the main clause. This structure effectively expresses a real possibility in the future.
In Spanish, which sentence correctly uses the future tense to indicate a planned action?
Mañana estudio para el examen.
Mañana estudié para el examen.
Mañana estudiaré para el examen.
Mañana estudiaría para el examen.
Option A is correct because it uses the future simple form 'estudiaré' to indicate a planned future action. The alternatives use the conditional, present, or past tenses, which do not match the intended meaning.
Which of the following sentences correctly expresses a real possibility in the future using a conditional clause?
If I see him, I would tell him the news.
If I see him, I will tell him the news.
If I saw him, I will tell him the news.
If I saw him, I would tell him the news.
Option A uses the first conditional structure by pairing the present simple in the if”clause with the future simple in the main clause, which clearly expresses a real possibility. The other options incorrectly mix tenses or indicate a hypothetical scenario.
Which of the following Spanish sentences correctly uses the conditional mood to express a hypothetical scenario?
Yo voy al parque si hace buen tiempo.
Yo iría al parque si hiciera buen tiempo.
Yo fui al parque si hacía buen tiempo.
Yo iré al parque si hace buen tiempo.
Option B correctly uses the conditional form 'iría' along with the imperfect subjunctive 'hiciera' to express a hypothetical scenario. The other sentences use the future, present, or past tenses, which do not correctly convey an imagined situation.
Identify the sentence that appropriately uses the future simple to express prediction in English.
The train would leave at 8 PM.
The train will leave at 8 PM.
The train is leaving at 8 PM.
The train leaves at 8 PM.
Option B is correct because it uses the future simple 'will leave' to convey a prediction about a future event. The other options either use the present simple, present continuous, or a conditional form that does not match the intended meaning.
Which sentence properly contrasts a condition with a future result?
If I completed my studies, I will travel abroad during the summer.
If I completed my studies, I would travel abroad during the summer.
If I complete my studies, I would travel abroad during the summer.
If I complete my studies, I will travel abroad during the summer.
Option A correctly employs the first conditional structure by using the present simple in the if”clause and the future simple in the main clause, effectively linking a condition to its future result. The other options use mismatched tenses.
What is the error in the following sentence: 'If he finishes his work, he would receive a bonus'?
The error is mixing a present simple in the if”clause with 'would receive' in the main clause.
The error is using 'would receive' instead of 'will receive'.
The error is that a comma should not be used.
The use of 'finishes' is incorrect.
Option C accurately identifies the error: in a first conditional statement, the main clause should use the future simple ('will receive') rather than the conditional 'would receive'. This consistency is essential for correct conditional construction.
Which sentence uses the Spanish future tense correctly to express a definite plan?
Mañana iré al cine.
Mañana voy a ir al cine.
Mañana iría al cine.
Mañana fui al cine.
Option A is the best choice as it employs the future simple ('iré') to denote a definite plan. Although option C is sometimes used colloquially, the future simple is the clearest form for expressing a planned action.
In Spanish, which form accurately translates 'I would eat' when expressing a conditional desire?
Como
Comeré
Comería
Comí
Option C is correct because 'comería' is the conditional form used to express what one would do under certain circumstances. The other options represent the present, future, or past tenses and do not convey conditionality.
Which sentence uses a mixed conditional form correctly in English?
If I had studied harder, I would attend a prestigious university now.
If I study harder, I will be attending a prestigious university now.
If I had studied harder, I would be attending a prestigious university now.
If I study harder, I would be attending a prestigious university now.
Option B correctly forms a mixed conditional by combining the past perfect ('had studied') with the present conditional ('would be attending'). This structure conveys a past condition affecting a present result. The other options mix tenses improperly.
Which sentence demonstrates an incorrect mix of tenses in a first conditional statement?
If it rained tomorrow, we will cancel the picnic.
If it rains tomorrow, we would cancel the picnic.
If it rains tomorrow, we will cancel the picnic.
If it rained tomorrow, we would cancel the picnic.
Option A is incorrect because it mixes the present simple in the if”clause with 'would cancel' in the main clause. The proper first conditional requires pairing the if”clause with the future simple, ensuring tense consistency.
Which sentence uses the future progressive tense correctly in English?
I would be studying at 8 PM tonight.
I am studying at 8 PM tonight.
I will study at 8 PM tonight.
I will be studying at 8 PM tonight.
Option B is correct because it uses the future progressive form ('will be studying') to indicate an ongoing action at a specific future time. The other options either indicate a simple future, present action, or use the conditional mood.
Which sentence best employs a conditional sentence to express a polite suggestion in English?
If you needed assistance, you might consider asking the teacher.
If you needed assistance, you will ask the teacher.
If you need assistance, you will ask the teacher.
If you will need assistance, you may ask the teacher.
Option B correctly uses the conditional form 'needed' paired with 'might consider' to express a polite suggestion in a hypothetical context. The other options either use inappropriate tense combinations or fail to convey the polite, tentative nature required.
Which sentence in Spanish correctly employs both a conditional and a subjunctive clause to express an imaginary situation?
Si tuviera tiempo, iría al concierto.
Si tengo tiempo, iré al concierto.
Si tuve tiempo, iré al concierto.
Si tendría tiempo, iría al concierto.
Option B is correct because it uses the imperfect subjunctive 'tuviera' with the conditional 'iría' to properly construct an imaginary or hypothetical situation in Spanish. The other options misuse the verb forms.
Identify the sentence that correctly distinguishes between a promise and a possibility using future and conditional forms in English.
If you help me, I would buy you dinner.
If you help me, I will buy you dinner.
If you helped me, I will buy you dinner.
If you helped me, I would buy you dinner.
Option B uses the first conditional format by pairing the present simple in the if”clause with the future simple in the main clause, thereby distinguishing a real promise. The other options mix tenses incorrectly, which blurs the intended meaning.
Which sentence erroneously blends time references in a conditional statement, and why?
If he will finish his work, he would have left by 5 PM.
If he finishes his work, he would leave by 5 PM.
If he finished his work, he would leave by 5 PM.
If he finishes his work, he will leave by 5 PM.
Option B is incorrect because it improperly mixes a future reference in the if”clause ('will finish') with a perfect conditional in the main clause ('would have left'). Correct conditional sentences require consistent tense usage between the clauses.
In advanced Spanish grammar, which sentence accurately reflects the contrast between a real future action and an unreal hypothetical situation?
Mañana estudiaré, pero si estuviera enfermo, me quedé en casa.
Mañana estudiaría, pero si estuviera enfermo, me quedaría en casa.
Mañana estudiaré, pero si estuve enfermo, me quedaría en casa.
Mañana estudiaré, pero si estuviera enfermo, me quedaría en casa.
Option B correctly contrasts a definite future action ('estudiaré') with a hypothetical condition using the imperfect subjunctive ('estuviera') and the conditional ('me quedaría'). The other options mix tenses or conjugations improperly.

Spanish Conditional & Future Tense Cheat Sheet

  1. Regular Conditional Conjugation - Give your Spanish a turbo boost by nailing down the endings -ía, -ías, -ía, -íamos, -íais, and -ían on any infinitive. With a little practice, "hablaría" will roll off your tongue when you say "I would speak."
  2. Irregular Conditional Verbs - Some verbs love to break the rules! Get cozy with stems like tendr- in "tendría," saldr- in "saldría," and dir- in "diría" so you're never caught off guard.
  3. Uses of the Conditional Tense - Whether you're daydreaming, making polite requests, or expressing wishes, the conditional tense is your go‑to. For example, "Me gustaría viajar" means "I would like to travel" - perfect for future vacation plans.
  4. Future Tense Endings - Don't mix it up with the conditional! To talk about what's definitely going to happen, tack on -é, -ás, -á, -emos, -éis, and -án to the infinitive: "comeré" for "I will eat."
  5. Uses of the Future Tense - The future tense lays out your solid plans and predictions, like "Mañana estudiaré" (Tomorrow I will study). It's your grammatical crystal ball for Spanish!
  6. Future vs. Conditional Comparison - Think of the future as your plan-it-now tense and the conditional as the what-if tense. Spot the difference to avoid mixing up "I will" with "I would."
  7. Si Clauses with Conditional - "If" clauses are like recipe instructions: combine the imperfect subjunctive with the conditional to cook up sentences like "Si tuviera dinero, viajaría" (If I had money, I would travel). Practice these combos to sound like a native.
  8. Polite Requests in Conditional - Level up your etiquette by using the conditional for gentle asks: "¿Podrías ayudarme?" (Could you help me?). It's the secret sauce for courtesy in Spanish!
  9. Irregular Stems in Both Tenses - Some troublemakers like "hacer" (haré/haría) and "decir" (diré/diría) change their stems in both tenses. Memorize these patterns and you'll glide through conversations unscathed.
  10. Practice with Exercises and Examples - The magic word for mastery? Practice! Dive into exercises and real‑life dialogues to cement when to use the future versus the conditional.
