THINGS TO DO

GRAMMAR: CONDITIONAL SENTENCES WITH IF

 FIRST CONDITIONAL

1- First Clause IF + PRESENT TENSE

Second Clause WILL + BASE/INFINITIVE FORM OF THE VERB

We use the first conditional structure to talk about a particular event or circumstance in the
future, and what will almost definitely happen as a result of this event.

If you go to the States, you will need a visa

If I see Monica this afternoon, I will tell her you called
If she likes musicals, she will love “Mamma Mia”

Note that the if clause is normally separated from the main clause by a comma.

2- It is possible to reverse the position of the if clause and the second clause.

You won’t enjoy your trip so much if you go during the rainy season.
They’ll have problems if they don’t book in advance.

Note that no comma is necessary if the sentence begins with the main clause.

3- In the second clause (the clause without if), it is possible to replace will with should, would
or might to make suggestions, offer advice or speculate about different possibilities.

If you visit our country next spring, you’ll be able to see the cherry trees in blossom.
If you have customers who enjoy fiestas, I’d recommend the carnival in the city of Gualeguaychu.
If you´re looking for excitement, you should take a boat trip to the edge of the falls.
