Conditional Tense - Spanishdict.com
From Spanishdict.com
The conditional (el condicional ) tense in Spanish is used to express what would happen in the future. It is more of a possibility, or hypothetical situation, than the future tense. The formation is very similar to that of the simple future tense in that one set of endings is added to the infinitive to create a new tense and the irregular stems are the same as those in the future tense.
Regular Conditional Forms
To form the conditional tense, simply add the correct ending to the infinitive of the verb. All verb conjugations (-AR, -ER, and -ER) have the same endings for the conditional tense:
Conditional Endings: -ía, -ías, -ía, -íamos, -íais, -ían
The endings for the conditional tense are the same as those for the -er and -ir forms of the imperfect tense.
Remember that the conditional adds the endings to the infinitive while the imperfect adds them to the stem.
- Conditional: Escribiría unas cartas. (I would write some letters.)
- Imperfect: Escribía unas cartas. (I wrote some letters.)

Future in Spanish - Spanishdict.com
From Spanishdict.com
In Spanish, there are two ways to express the future. One is the simple future tense, and the other, more basic form, is the informal future. The informal future is used mostly in spoken Spanish to express future actions.
Future Forms
The informal future is formed by the verb ir conjugated in the present indicative, the preposition a, and the infinitive of the action to be performed. The loose translation would be that someone is going to ___.
ir + a + infinitive

Preterite vs. Imperfect in Spanish
Overview - From Spanishdict.com - QUIZ
Many students have trouble knowing when to use the preterite tense or the imperfect tense since they both refer to actions in the past. There are several general rules to follow, as well as phrases to look out for. Many phrases use only one tense or the other, so memorizing them is very helpful in figuring out whether the use a verb in preterite or imperfect!
General Preterite Uses
Generally, the preterite is used for completed actions (actions that have definite beginning and end points.) These can be actions that can be viewed as single events, actions that were part of a chain of events, actions that were repeated a very specific number of times, or actions that specifically state the beginning and end of an action.
General Imperfect Uses
The imperfect tense is generally used for actions in the past that do not have a definite end. These can be actions that are not yet completed or refer to a time in general in the past. It can also be used to talk about:
- actions that were repeated habitually
- actions that set the stage for another past tense event
- time and dates in the past
- for telling a person’s age in the past
- to describe people (characteristics) in the past
- to communicate mental or physical states in the past
