First conditional.

The “first conditional” is also called the “future conditional” because it is used to discuss future events. The first
conditional is a linguistic structure which is used to express a consequence or result in the future due to a specific
situation in present that is being accomplished or not.
English contains many kinds of conditional sentences, but only a few are addressed here.

The use of when implies that the conditional clause is a more definite event. The use of if implies that the conditional clause is
only a possible event.
Examples:
If I study, I will learn more. (This implies my studying is just a possibility. But if I do study, I will learn more.)
When I study, I will learn more. (This implies that I will study at some point. And when I do, I will learn more.)

First conditional statements have the property to change the collocation of the 2 statements without alter the
meaning of the idea. The only change is the comma which must be written if the first statement starts with if.
If we don’t leave right away, we’ll miss our flight. = Si nosotros no partimos justo ahora, perderemos nuestro vuelo.

We’ll miss our flight If we don’t leave right away = Nosotros perderemos nuestro vuelo si no partimos justo ahora.

Unless we leave right away, we’ll miss our flight. = Si no partimos justo ahora, perderemos nuestro vuelo.
We’ll miss our flight unless we leave right away. = Nosotros perderemos nuestro vuelo si no partimos justo ahora.

If you don’t work, you won’t earn money. = Si no trabajas, no ganarás dinero.

Unless you work, you won’t earn money. = Si no trabajas, no ganarás dinero. A menos que trabajes, no ganarás
dinero.

You won’t earn money unless you work. = No ganarás dinero si no trabajas. / No ganarás dinero a menos que
trabajes.
Some differences in structure between the If clause and Unless:
Present idea: If we don’t go to the party,…
Unless we go to the party, …

Present idea: If she doesn’t repair her computer, …

Unless she repairs her computer, … (With he, she , it, add the s)

Shall
The traditional rule is that shall is used with first person pronouns (i.e. I and we) to form the future tense,
while will is used with second and third person forms (i.e. you, he, she, it, they). For example: I shall be late.

There will be 1 or 2 statements with shall. Shall and should are used similarly and they mean debería. They
are followed by a verb in present.

If she goes downtown, she shall see the dentist.

She shall see the dentist if she goes downtown.
