SECOND CONDITIONAL

SECOND CONDITIONAL

1. Second conditional is used in situations/actions in the present or future which are not likely to happen or are imaginary, hypothetical or impossible.

   • To form the second conditional we use:  If+past simple and would+infinitive
     • If I won the lottery, I would travel around the world and buy a castle.
     • Additional points
       • Other modal verbs can be used in place of would:
         • If I had more money, I could buy a car.
       • Buying a car would be possible.
         • If I won the lottery, I might give all the money to charity.
