    If a condition in the present is met, then a future consequence will occur. The first conditional uses "if" plus the present simple in the if-clause and "will" plus the verb in the main clause to describe real possibilities and their future results. Examples include "If it rains, I will stay at home" and "If I study, I will pass my exams." We can also use "unless" in the if-clause to mean "if...not", such as "Unless the teacher explains, we won't know what to do."

    FIRST

    CONDITIONAL
    It is a structure used for talking about possibilities in the
    present or in the future.
    OBJECTIVES

    At the end of this topic you will:


    Use the structure of the first
    conditional (if...will...) through a
    couple of sentences in order to refer
    real situations which will present a
    consequence in the future.
    Grammar Structure
    We often make conditional sentences by using.

    If clause: if + subject + present simple.

    Main clause: subject+ will + verb + complement


    Examples
    • If it rains, I will stay at home.

    • If I wake up late, I will miss the bus.

    • If I study, I will pass my exams.


    UNLESS
    We can also use the word unless in conditional sentences - it means if ……
    not.
    EXAMPLES
    Unless the teacher explains, we won`t know what to do.
    EXPLANATION
    If the teacher doesn`t explain, we won`t know what to do.
