Quizás versus Quizá
Hi,
This is the question I meant to ask earlier... Grin...
Do both of these words exist Quizás y Quizá? If so, when do you use one over the other?
Thanks.

Those native speakers use them indistinctly, the rule says that:
Quizá must be used if the following word starts with a consonant, and
Quizás must be used if the following word starts with a vowel.
Quizás ella sabe la verdad.
Quizá nosotros sabemos la verdad.
I hope this helps.

Well, I have to disagree with Mario. Both words are used indistinctly, no matter what the following words begins with. You can see this on the DPD (Diccionario Panhispánico de Dudas): http://lema.rae.es/dpd/?key=quiz%C3%A1 In fact, have a look at the examples!
So don't worry about using one or the other, both will be OK!
