[1] Type 1 conditional sentences use "if + present simple + future simple" to talk about real possibilities in the future, such as "If it rains, we will stay at home." [2] Type 2 conditional sentences use "if + past simple + would" to talk about improbable or imaginary present situations, like "If I won some money, I would go around the world." [3] Type 3 conditional sentences use "if + past perfect + would have + past participle" to refer to unreal past situations, for example "If I had gone to the party, I would have met lots of people."
