    What is Conditional Sentences?

    Conditional sentences are statements that connect situations and


    their consequences.
    Complete conditional sentences contain:
    a conditional clause (if/when-clause) + the consequence.
    There are four types of Conditional Sentences:
    1. Zero type
    2. First type
    3. Second type
    4. Third type
    ZERO TYPE

    Zero conditional sentences express general truths rather


    than specific situations of truths.

    Structure:
    If simple present, simple present
    Ex:
    If you eat too much junk food, your health suffer.
    FIRST TYPE

    First conditional sentences are used to express situations in


    which the outcome is possibly to happen in the future (but
    not guaranteed). This type is also used to tell a promise.

    Structure:
    If simple present, simple future (will)
    Ex:
    If you take a rest, you will feel better.
    If I get an A in my math exam, I will go to Starbucks.
    SECOND TYPE

    Second conditional sentences are useful for expressing


    results that are completely unrealistic or will not possibly
    happen in the future.

    Structure:
    If simple past, past future (would, could, might, should)
    Ex:
    If I were a KFC boss, I would eat KFC chicken every day.
    THIRD TYPE

    Third conditional sentences are used to explain that present condition


    (now) would be different if something different had happened in the past.

    Structure:
    If perfect past, perfect past future (would, could, might, should+have)
    Ex:
    If you had told me that she doesn’t like pizza, I would have not bought her
    pizza.
