using the word diría

Question

diría.....I have seen this word used in so many context. Is it best to avoid its use? when is it used in "everyday" speech? has it got a specific text to fit into?

Remember to use proper capitalization and punctuation. - rac1, Feb 10, 2017

Answer 1

Diría is the conditional form of decir, for the yo, and él/ella/Ud. forms. It's used as every other conditional form is used, generally to express the idea of "would say/tell" in the future. For example, I could say, "Si yo fuera tú, le diría la verdad" in order to say, "If I were you, I would tell him the truth."
