B2 · Written future, conditional, se + imperfect subjunctive

Will, would, if I could

The -ei future shows up in print and pledges: farei, terás, poderão. The mouth still likes vou / vais. Condicional is the polite and the hypothetical: gostaria, poderia, faria. Real 'if' in European Portuguese often takes the imperfect subjunctive: se pudesse, se fosse, se tivesse tempo. Pair them: se pudesse, iria.

ele/você take the same form. eles/vocês too.
