Questions & Answers about Capaz que estamos seguros después de analizar los datos.
Why is estamos in the indicative here instead of the subjunctive?
The phrase capaz que is very common in Latin America to mean "might" or "maybe". Unlike many expressions of doubt, it frequently takes the indicative, especially when the speaker feels the outcome is quite likely or is presenting it as a concrete possibility. Using the subjunctive (estemos) here is also grammatically correct but would make the possibility feel more remote or doubtful to the listener.
Is the phrase capaz que used in formal situations?
Why do we use estamos instead of somos with seguros?
Why does the sentence use the infinitive analizar instead of a gerund like analizando to translate "analyzing"?
