   • With the name of zero conditional, the structure that raises a possibility of which the same consequence is always recognized is recognized. That is, to the sentence that affirms a truthful and effective fact, but instead of posing it as a generality, it poses it as a condition for a single resolution. This type of conditional is usually used in a context of dialogical communication and as an exemplary resource since, as mentioned, it can always be replaced by a generalization that includes the case that is being talked about and also many others. It gives a practical nuance to a sentence that states something that will be repeated in any case.
