How to use creer in the conditional

The conditional of creer is regular: creería, creerías, creería, creeríamos, creerían. It is used for hypotheticals ("Nadie lo creería") and for very cautious opinions: "Yo creería que sí" (I would think so). It is less common than other conditionals, but useful in polite disagreement. In Latin America, you will also hear it in reported thoughts: "Pensé que nadie lo creería." Remember the double e and the accent on the í.
