I- What You Should Know

Conditionals- are statements expressing conditions and outcome of the
occurring condition. It consists of two clauses: the dependent clause or If
clause and the independent or main clause. The If clause/ when clause
states the condition, and the main clause explains the result or outcome.
Conditionals may come first before the main clause or vice versa. If the main
clause comes before the conditional, the meaning of the sentence remains
the same.

Examples:
1. When I visit my grandparents, I usually bring delicious food.
2. I usually bring delicious food when I visit my grandparents.
3. If mother is not busy, she will prepare a dinner for us.
4. Mother will prepare a dinner for us if she is not busy.

Note: When the If/when clause appear before the main clause, comma is
needed. However, when the main clause appears before the If/when clause,
comma is not needed.
