second conditiona

second conditiona

1. The second conditional is used to talk about ( impossible ) situations

2. We can use 'were' instead of 'was' with 'I' and 'he/she/it'. This is mostly done in formal writing).

   • It has two uses.
     • First, 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 for example.

3. How is this different from the first conditional? This kind of conditional sentence is different from the first conditional because this is a lot more unlikely.

   • For example (second conditional): If I had enough money I would buy a house with twenty bedrooms and a swimming pool (I'm probably not going to have this much money, it's just a dream, not very real)

4. Negative: IF + SUBJECT + VERB + DIDN'T INF , wouldn't + SUBJECT + VERB INFINITIVE . v

5. questions: would +pronoun +ver ?

   • WOULDN`T + PRONOUN +VERB?
