In Spanish, we use the conditional tense (el condicional) to talk about hypothetical situations and possibilities and to make polite requests. There are both regular and irregular conditional forms.
If you want to form the conditional tense with the regular verbs, you need to add the conditional endings to the end of the infinitive as indicated in the Table below.
On the other hand, there are basically three categories for irregular verbs:
a) Verbs where the last vowel in the infinitive is replaced with a <em>d</em>. In this category only <em>er</em> and <em>ir</em> verbs fall. If we want to form the stem of these verbs, we just simply replace the <em>e</em> or <em>i</em> at the end of the infinitive with a <em>d</em>. Then, we add the conditional endings indicated in the Table below.
b) Verbs where the last vowel in the infinitive is removed. In this category only <em>er</em> verbs fall. If we want to form the stem of these verbs, we must remove the vowel from the infinitive ending. Then, we add the conditional endings shown in the Table below.
c) Verbs that are simply irregular. For example, the verbs <em>decir</em> and <em>hacer</em> fall in this category.
In this way, we can solve this exercise:
Q1.
The right answer is A) hablaría
Yo hablaría con la maestra
Regular verb: Hablar
Q2.
The right answer is C) ayudarían
Mis amigos ayudarían a los padres
Regular Verb: Ayudar
Q3.
The right answer is B) viviría
Con un millón de dólares, yo viviría en Italia
Regular verb: vivir
Q4.
The right answer is A) saldría
Yo saldría inmediatamente después de mis clases
Irregular verb: Salir
Q5.
The right answer is D) dirías
¿Qué dirías tú al rey de Inglaterra?
Irregular verb: decir
Q6.
The right answer is C) querría
Sara querría ir al lago
Irregular verb: querer
Q7.
The right answer is A) visitarías
¿Visitarías tú el desierto valle de la muerte?
Regular verb: visitar
Q8.
The right answer is C) Nosotros siempre diríamos la verdad
This sentence is in a conditional form. As we said above the verb decir is irregular so the conjugation in this case is diríamos.
Q9.
The right answer is B) Ella haría la tierra más limpia
The verb hacer is also irregular, so the conjugation in this case is haría
Q10.
The right answer is A) tendrías
¿Tendrías tiempo para hablar mañana?
Irregular verb: tener
