CONDITIONALS:
What are conditionals in English grammar?
Sometimes we call them 'if clauses'. They describe the
result of something that might happen (in the present or
future) or might have happened but didn't (in the past) .
They are made using different English verb tenses.
SIMPLE PRESENT
Simple present tense with be':
Here's the positive form (positive means a normal sentence, not
a negative or a question. This is sometimes called affirmative').

SIMPLE PAST
Remember, this is the BASIC past tense. We
use it whenever we want to talk about the
past.

It is often called the 'ed' form as it is formed by adding d or
ed, to the base form of regular verbs, however it is also formed
in various other ways for irregular verbs.
