03 Conditional Mood

Hola.  In this video lesson, we’ll be tackling one of my favorites: the conditional.  The conditional is generally used to mean “would”.  While some refer to it as a tense, it is really a mood.  It is often used when talking about abstract concepts, unlikely things, or the impossible.  It’s formed in a similar way as the future tense.  In this video we’ll be going over the regular verbs as well as the irregular verbs in this tense.

Enjoy!
