    REAL CONDITIONAL

    - CONDITIONAL ZERO (FACTS) IF (SIMPLE PRESENT) + RESULT (SIMPLE PRESENT)

    EX: If it rains, the soil gets wet. If you boil water to 100°C, it evaporates.

    - FIRST CONDITIONAL (PREDICTIONS) IF (SIMPLE PRESENT) + RESULT (FUTURE)

    EX: If I study, I’ll pass the test. I’ll stay home if it rains tomorrow.

    UNREAL CONDITIONAL – IMAGINARY SITUATIONS


    - SECOND CONDITIONAL (PRESENT) IF (SIMPLE PAST/WERE) + RESULT (WOULD)

    EX: If I won the lottery, I would travel around the world.


    If I didn’t have to wake up early, I would stay up late.

    - THIRD CONDITIONAL (PAST)


    IF (PAST PERFECT) + RESULT (WOULD HAVE + PAST PARTICIPLE)

    EX: If I had arrived early, I would have seen him.


    If I hadn’t had an argument with my mom, I would have gone with her.
    My mom wouldn’t have made lunch if she had known that Sara hadn’t come.
