A. Introduction Preliminaries
This lesson focuses on forms and use of conditionals. As grammatical features, conditionals are used
in expressing stand or arguments which may be helpful in persuading others to move or act and even
change their thoughts.
You are expected to identify the different types and ways in writing conditionals; create dialogues in
expressing arguments; and use conditionals in expressing argument.
Learning Task 1
Share your thoughts by completing each clause with your personal responses.
1. If the sky turns grey, __________.
2. If the sun gets too hot in the beach, _______.
3. If you drop an egg, _____.

B. Development Conditionals can be used in expressing stand or arguments. Expressing argument is helpful in
presenting one’s reasoning to change one’s point of view in a particular topic or issue. Conditionals
may be helpful in persuading others to move or act and even change their thoughts.
Examples: If you pray hard for it, you will receive it.
You will receive it if you pray hard for it.
When you pray, God listens.
God listens when you pray.
1. Zero conditional deals with habits and general truths such as laws. It is formed using this structure:
if/when + present simple >> present simple condition main clause
2. First conditional is used in dealing with things that are possibly or likely to happen in the future.
Though this type may be formed using unless, as long as, as soon as or in case, its most common
form uses this structure:
if/when + present simple >> will + infinitive condition main clause
Examples: If you don’t pass the test, I’ll hire a tutor for you.
The student will get a scholarship if he passes the interview.
When I am done with this, I’ll get my car to fetch you.
I’ll call your mom unless Jerome admits his fault.
