1st Conditional

Zero Conditional a rule, something that is If + present, present If you heat ice, it melts.
always true
First Conditional a real future situation If + present, will/ may/ might My brother will join us, if
his lessons finish at 4 pm.

The first conditional describes a particular situation,

whereas the zero conditional describes what happens in general.

For example (zero conditional): if you sit in the sun, you get burned
(here I'm talking about every time a person sits in the sun
- the burning is a natural consequence of the sitting)

But (first conditional): if you sit in the sun, you will get burned
(here I'm talking about what will happen today,
another day might be different)

Future Time Clauses

When, as soon as, before, after, until

When we use a verb after when, as soon as, before, after or until to talk about the future, we have to use
this verb in present tense (NOT future). We use the future in the other part of the sentence.

 I’ll retire when I’m 70. (NOT: when I’ll be)

 I won’t call you until I arrive. (NOT: until I will arrive.)

Similar to first conditional

Future time clauses are similar to the first conditional. There’s a main clause and a when/after/etc. clause.
We use the verbs in these clauses like in the first conditional.

? what is a clause ?

 it is a part of the sentence

 in our case here, we always have 2 parts of a sentence
 in 1st Conditional, the comma (čiarka) devides our 2 parts of a sentence
 in Future Time Clauses, we sometimes have a comma, and sometimes we don´t
o either way, we have these phrases: when, as soon as, before, after or until, and they act as
our dividers between the parts of a sentence

for example: I WILL RETIRE… = first part = first clause (main clause)
…WHEN I AM 70 YEARS OLD = second part = second clause (’when’ clause)

what about the comma?

We use a comma when the when/after/etc. clause is at the beginning of the sentence.
But we don’t use a comma if the when/after… clause is at the end of the sentence.
  I’ll retire when I’m 70.
 When I’m 70, I’ll retire.

! We use present in the when/after/etc. clause and we use future in the main clause !

 Before you go to sleep, daddy will tell you a story.

In the main clause, we can also use may, might, can, must, should or an imperative instead of will.

 As soon as you finish, you can leave.

 After you arrive, call me.

 Tom will turn off the lights when he leaves the office. (Not when he will leave).
 Dad will reply when he comes home from work. (NOT when he will come home.)
 I will tidy the living-room before I go to bed. (Not before I will go).
 They will do the shopping before we arrive. (NOT before we will arrive.)
