    This document outlines four types of conditional sentences in English based on the time or likelihood of the condition. Type 0 uses a simple present tense in both clauses to express general truths. Type I uses a simple present in the if-clause and will in the main clause to discuss possible future conditions and results. Type II uses a past tense in the if-clause and would in the main clause to discuss improbable present or future conditions and results. Type III uses past perfect in the if-clause and would/could/might plus the past perfect in the main clause to discuss unreal past conditions and their probable results.
