structure of the zero conditional

The zero conditional in English is formed with the present

simple and has two clauses that we can call 'condition' and
'result’.

If + subject + present simple,

Subject + present simple.

 Negative zero conditional

In the case of negative sentences in the zero conditional, it is necessary to

use the auxiliary do/does. Structure:

If + Sujeto + present simple, + Sujeto + present simple
