What is conditional sentences?

Conditional sentences are natural language sentences that express that one
thing is contingent on something else, e.g. “if it rains, the picnic will be
cancelled.” They are so called because the impact of the main clause of the
sentence is conditional on the dependent clause.
How many type of conditional sentence?

1. ZERO CONDITIONAL

2. FIRST CONDITIONAL

3. SECOND CONDITIONAL

4. THIRD CONDITIONAL

5. MIXED CONDITIONAL
ZERO CONDITIONAL
Usage This conditional is used when the result will
always happen. So, if water reaches 100
degrees, it always boils. It's a fact. I'm talking in
general, not about one particular situation. The
result of the 'if clause' is always the main clause.

Structure IF + Present Simple, …. Present Simple

Examples • If you freeze water, it turns into ice.


• if you heat water at 100 degrees, it boils.
As with all conditionals, you can also invert this
structure:
Structure Present Simple + if + Present Simple

Examples • You gonna get hungry if you don’t eat


FIRST CONDITIONAL
Usage The first conditional is used to express the future
consequence of a realistic possibility now or in
the future.

Structure If + present simple, will/won’t + verb.

Examples • If I pass this exam, I’ll celebrate.


• If I pass this exam, I won’t have to do it again.

Like all conditionals we can also invert this


structure:
Structure Will + verb if + present simple.

Examples • I’ll celebrate if I pass this exam.


SECOND CONDITIONAL

Usage The second conditional is used to express the


consequence of an unrealistic action or situation
in the present or future.

Structure If + past simple, would/wouldn’t + verb

Examples • If it won a million dollars, I would buy a new car.


• If I were you, I would quit smoking.

As with all conditionals, you can also invert this


structure:
Structure Would + verb if + past simple.

Examples • I’d go out more often if I lived in a big city.


THIRD CONDITIONAL
Usage The third conditional is used to express the past
consequence of an unrealistic action or situation
in the past.

Structure If + past perfect, would/wouldn’t have + past


participle.

Examples • If I had got a gold medal, I would have been happy.


• If I had met Susan last week, I would have given her the
book.
As with all conditionals, you can also invert this
structure:
Structure Would have + past participle if + past perfect.
Examples • I’d have come to the meeting if you’d told me about it.
MIXED CONDITIONAL

Mixed conditional sentences are conditional sentences


that combine conditional sentences type 2 and 3. The
function of mixed conditional sentences is to convey the
possibility that will occur in the present if there is a
change in the past. This also means that mixed
conditional sentences are only suppositions that cannot
possibly happen.
Mixed Third/ Second
Conditional
description The mixed conditional describes present result
of a past condition.
We use the mixed third/ second conditional to
Usage express that if something had been different in
the past there would be a present result.
In this type of mixed conditional sentence, the
tense in the ‘if‘ clause is the past perfect, and
the tense in the main clause is the present
conditional.
If + Past Perfect, Present Conditional
Structure (would/wouldn’t + Verb (bare form)).
For example:
Examples If I had listened to your advice, I wouldn’t be in
the mess.
Mixed Second/ Third
Conditional
description We use the mixed second/ third conditional to
express that due to certain present conditions
something already happened in the past.
Usage The mixed conditional describes past result of a
present or continuing condition.

in this second type of mixed conditional


sentence, the tense in the ‘if‘ clause is the
simple past, and the tense in the main clause is
the perfect conditional.
Structure If + Past Simple, Perfect Conditional
(would/wouldn’t + have + Past Participle).
For example:
Examples If I were a good cook, I would have
invited them to dinner.
NOTE

in these mixed conditional sentences, you can also


use modals in the main clause instead of would to
express the degree of certainty, permission, or a
recommendation about the outcome.
For example:
If he had enough money, he could have done this trip
to Hawaii.
If he’d gone to university, he might have a better job.
Any Question ?
Conclusion

Conditional sentences are taught in English classes and in English


textbooks because they are easy teach. “Rules” are always easy to teach,
and they are easy to mark right or wrong on a test.
It’s important to remember that conditional sentences are just one category
of sentences in English.
However, each of the conditional sentence structures is used in a variety of
situations, and that’s why they are important.
