## Resource

The subjunctive has a reputation for being one of the trickiest parts of Spanish, but you don't always need it to talk about what might happen. In this episode, Pablo shares three everyday expressions, a lo mejor, igual and lo mismo, that let you express possibility and uncertainty using the ordinary indicative. They're common, natural and a great way to sound more relaxed when you're not quite sure about something. ➡️ Love learning in short bursts?
