Conditionals

• What do you know about conditionals?
    - check your knowledge: p. 11
• Discuss answers (& information)

Conditionals

• result of situation
• clear condition 
• four types:
   - zero conditional
   - first conditional
   - second conditional
   - third conditional

Zero conditional

• things that are generally true (laws, rules)
• structure: if + present simple, (then...) + present simple

Example:

If I drink too much coffee, I can't sleep at night.

First conditional

• future situations that are possible / likely to happen

• structure: if +  present simple, (then...) will + infinitive

Example:

If it doesn't rain tomorrow, we will go to the beach.

Second conditional

• future situations that are impossible / not likely to happen

• structure: if +  past simple, (then...) would  + infinitive 

Example:

If I won a lot of money, I would buy a big house. 

               
              past simple of to be --> I, he/she/it = were      

Third conditional

• imagined past (usually regrets)
• structure: if +  past perfect, (then...) would + have + past     participle 
  
  

Example:

If I had studied more, I would have passed the exam.

Let's check!

1. If the clock strikes midnight, it ..... (to be) a new day.

2. If I had known you were in trouble, I ..... (to help).
