Fill in the blank with the correct answer.
Me __________ ir al concerto contigo, pero no tengo dinero.
gustaría
gusto
gustaba
gustó
gustan
Explanation
The correct answer is "gustaría," the conditional tense. When translated the sentence means "I would like to go to the concert but I don't have money."
"Gusto" is the wrong tense and person. "Gustaba" and "gustó" are the wrong tense, and "gustan" is the wrong tense and number.
Which verb best completes this sentence?
Si hubiera hecho el crimen, __________ culpable, pero no lo hice.
sería
estaría
estuviera
none of the other answers
Explanation
This is a classic conditional haber/ser structure: the right answer is sería; estaría is in the right tense but does not agree with the adjective; estuviera both does not agree with the adjective and is in the wrong tense.
