Conditional sentence type 2

Second conditional sentences merupakan tipe kalimat pengandaian yang digunakan ketika hasil
atau konsekuensi hanya memiliki harapan terwujud walaupun kemungkinannya sangat kecil.

Jadi bisa dikatakan kalau kalimat pengandaian tipe kedua ini belum tentu terjadi namun juga bisa
menjadi kenyataan.

Dalam bentuk kalimat ini, rumus yang digunakan adalah:

- If Clouse : Simple Past Tense : If + S + V.2 + O/c

- Main Clouse : Past Future : S + Would + V.1 + O/c
Examples :

 If I inherited a billion dollars, I would travel to the moon.

 If I owned a zoo, I would let people interact with the animals more.
 If I were you, I would continue my study.
 If I had time, I would go with you.
 If she met her mother, she would be very happy.
 If it rained tomorrow, I would sleep all day.
 If I were you, I would tell him the truth.

Conditional sentence type 3

Third conditional sentence merupakan sebuah kalimat pengandaian ketika sebuah kondisi tidak
mungkin terwujud sama sekali.

Hal ini bisa digambarkan karena kondisi yang sangat mustahil atau hanya sebuah mimpi atau
imajinasi.

Dalam tipe kalimat pengandaian yang ketiga ini, bentuk kalimat menggunakan past perfect yang
dilengkapi dengan modal auxiliary  seperti would, could, dan should.

Rumus yang digunakan adalah:

- If Clouse : if +  past perfect, : S + had + V.3 + O/c

- Main Clouse : Past Future Perfect :
S + would/should + have + V.3 + O/c
