Zero Conditional and First Conditional. Second Conditional.

1. Zero conditional

   • We use the zero conditional to talk about things that are always or generally true.
   • We use this simple present in both the if clause and the main clause.
   • We can use when instead of in the if clause.

2. First Conditional

   • We use the first conditional to talk about something that is possible in the future.
   • We use the simple present in the if clause, and we use the future with will in the main clause.
   • We can also use a modal verb (can,must, should), or the imperative instead of will in the main clause.
   • We can use unless instead of if not in the if clause.

3. Second Conditional

   • We use the second conditional to talk about something that is impossible or something that is unlikely in the present or the future.
   • We also use the second conditional to give advice, usually with if i were you.
   • We use the simple past in the if clause, and would + a main verb in the main clause.
   • We can also use a modal verb (could, might,etc.) instead of would in the main clause.
   • We can use were instead of was in the if clause.
