First and Second CONDITIONAL

First and Second CONDITIONAL

1. Second Conditional

   • We can use it to talk about things in the future that are probably not going to be true. Maybe I'm imagining some dream.
   • Examples
     • If I won the lottery, I would buy a big house
     • She would travel all over the world if she were rich.
   • Structure
     • if + past simple, ...would + infinitive

2. First Conditional

   • It's used to talk about things which might happen in the future. Of course, we can't know what will happen in the future, but this describes possible things, which could easily come true.
   • Examples:
     • If it rains, I won't go to the park.
     • If I have enough money, I'll buy some new shoes.
   • Structure
     • if + present simple, ... will + infinitive
