CONDICIONAL SIMPLE
The conditional, like the future, has only one set of endings.
To form the conditional tense of -AR, -ER, and -IR verbs, add the following endings to the infinitive.
|
Yo |
Trabajar- |
-ía |
I would work |
|
Tú |
Trabajar- |
-ías |
You would work |
|
El /ella /usted |
Trabajar- |
-ía |
He /she / you formal would work |
|
Nosotros |
Trabajar- |
-íamos |
We would work |
|
Vosotros |
Trabajar- |
-íais |
You would work |
|
Ellos /ellas / ustedes |
Trabajar- |
-ían |
They / you plural formal/ would work |
IRREGUALR VERBS
These irregular verbs still use the same endings as regular verbs and are exactly the same in the future tense.
