- 10 Conditional Conditional sentences in English are used to talk about events and their results.cero conditionals = hábitos, hechos, verdades
If + present simple, present simple
Example: If I get lost, I ask for directions. - 21 conditional In a Type 1 conditional sentence, the tense in the 'if' clause is the simple present, and the tense in the main clause is the simple future.The type 1 conditional refers to a possible condition and its probable result
If clause (condition): If + simple present
example:If this thing happens
Main clause (result): simple future
Example: that thing will happen. - 32 Conditional The second conditional is a structure used to talk about impossible or imaginary situations.To form the second conditional we use: If+past simple and would+infinitive
It is not important which clause is first.
Example: If it's a nice day tomorrow, we'll go swimming. – THIS SITUATION IS POSSIBLE.
If I weren't/wasn't at work, I'd be on the beach. – THIS SITUATION IS IMAGINARY - 43 ConditionalThe third conditional requires us to construct a sentence in two parts.
We make the third conditional by using ‘if,’ the past perfect form of the verb in the first part of the sentence and then ‘would have’ and the past participle the second part of the sentence:
if + past perfect, …would + have + past participle
