Use the second conditional when you want to imagine

that the present, right now, is different than it really is.


The most common use is giving advice to people. You
imagine what you would do if you faced the same
decision or situation as someone else.
The second conditional can also be used to ask for advice
or giving reasons why you can’t do something.
Agreeing and disagreeing
There are many ways you can express agreement and
disagreement in English.
Depending on the situation, some are more appropriate (fitting
or correct) than others.
“To agree” means to share the same opinion as someone or to
accept their suggestion. “To disagree” means to have a different
opinion.
So agreeing with someone means you’re telling them that you
think the same. You’re disagreeing when you tell them you don’t.
Almost any English conversation you participate in will include
having to agree or disagree. So, let’s learn how to do so like a
friendly native English speaker.
