Conditional Clauses

Conditional Clauses
A clause is a group of words that tells you two things: 

First, it has a subject: that's who or what is doing something. 

Second, it has a predicate: that's the action the subject is taking. E.g.:
They run.
The plant grows.
Conditional tenses speculate (guess):
- what could happen
- what might have happened
- what we wish would happen
(also refers to a general truth)

Remember:
'IF' + Verb Tense (E.g.: If + Present Simple)
