🤔 Conditional Tense or Futur tense?

Are you always hesitating between "je serais" (Conditional mood) and "je serai" (futur tense) ?? 🤔


Here is a way to stop making the mistake:


If an action will be done with certainty, we use the future tense.

  • For example: Demain, je serai à l'école

Tomorrow, I will be at school


If have difficuties, there is a trick: Just change the pronoun.

  • For example: je serai à Paris. Tu seras à Paris = futur de l'indicatif.

I will be in Paris. You will be in Paris = indicative future.

  • Je serais à Paris. Tu serais à Pais = Présent du conditionnel

I would be in Paris. You would be in Paris = Conditional tense
