quizá" or "quizás"? I came across a Spanish question when I was reading a text and it began with the word "quizás". However, when I was searching about it, I realized that we can also use the equivalent "quizá". The problem is that I couldn't understand when to use one or the other. If you can help me, I'd appreciate a lot. Thanks in advance. Lucas

There's no difference other than your own preference or style. As a side note, we tend to drop the final 's' in southern Spain, so we normally say 'quizá' when speaking (but either when writing).

¡Hola Lucas! Como dice Sara, son sinónimos y puedes usarlos indistintamente. Pero es frecuente usar quizá-consonante y quizás-vocal. Por ejemplo: Quizá vaya a la fiesta. Quizás aquí encuentre una respuesta.
