Grammar game: Indicative Mood - Conditional Tense

We've done the work, words more, words less.

Congratulations to all participants for their efforts ...

Now if you want, vote for the answers you deem best.

Thank you for your participation.

Now, let's prepare for next challenge!...


These are the rules:

**Write in Spanish and English, the conjugation of a different verb each time (included in a sentence). People must use the conditional tense of indicative mood beginning with the letter A for each pronoun (I, you, he/she/it, we, you, they) then with B, etc. until you get to Z.

Examples:

Yo abriría la puerta si alguien la estuviera tocando.- I would open the door if someone was knocking on it.... (1st person)

Tú alimentarías a los animales si tuvieran hambre. - You would feed the animals if they were hungry.... (2nd person)

etc.
