    This document discusses mixed conditionals, which use a combination of second and third conditional forms to talk about past and present events. Mixed conditionals have a second conditional in one part and a third conditional in the other part. Examples are provided, such as "If tickets weren't so expensive, I'd have gone to the cinema last night" and "If Max hadn't fallen off his bike, he'd be the champion now." The document notes it is not common to use zero or first conditionals in mixed conditionals and provides a link with more examples.

    MIXED CONDITIONALS

    When we want to use a conditional sentence to talk about both the past and the
    present or vice versa, we generally use the second conditional (present) in one
    part of the sentence and third conditional (past) in the other, resulting in a
    mixed conditional.

    - If tickets weren’t so expensive, I’d have gone to the cinema last night.
    2nd condition - present 3rd result - past

    Meaning: The tickets are expensive and that is why the speaker didn’t go to
    the cinema last night.

    - If Max hadn’t fallen off his bike, he’d be the champion now.
    3rd condition - past 2nd result - present

    Meaning: Max fell off his bike and that is why he isn’t the champion.

    NOTE: It is not common to use zero or first conditionals in mixed conditionals.
