Temas: Conditional type Zero, Type I and Type 2
Check out these three conditionals and how to use them in a sentence.
As you can see, the sentences are divided into two parts:
If clause (condition), + main clause (result)
These are separated by a comma, but they also function in the following order without one
and mean exactly the same thing:
Main clause (result) + if clause (condition)
1. Zero conditional
The zero conditional is used to talk about things that are certain, or always true. It is a real
condition that has an inevitable result. Think about how scientific facts are written or general
truths.
Structure & Examples
The structure of the zero conditional is: If + present simple…present simple
The message here is that if something happens there will always be a guaranteed
consequence. If you stand out in the rain, you’ll get wet. If you eat too much, you’ll put on
weight. If you touch a fire…well, then you’re asking for it.
‘When’ instead of ‘if’
We can also use the word when instead of if and the meaning stays the same.

2. First conditional
Finished the quiz? Now, back to work! Let’s move on to the first conditional. We use this to
talk about things in the future that are likely to happen or have a real possibility of
happening.
Structure & Examples
The structure of the first conditional is: If + present tense,…will/won’t + infinitive

3. Second conditional
So you’re halfway through learning the conditionals. Well done you! The thing is, this is where
things get a bit more difficult.
Whereas the zero and first conditionals describe a real or possible situation, the second and
third are imaginary or hypothetical situations. Let’s start with the second conditional:
Structure & Examples
The structure of the second conditional is: If + past simple,… would/wouldn’t + infinitive
As you can see, in the if clause we use the past simple, and in the main clause we use the
conditional would. We can also use the word could to mean a hypothetical possibility.
The second conditional refers to the present or the future, and is used to talk about anything
unlikely to happen. Imagine meeting Lionel Messi, or finding a million dollars on the floor.
These things might not have happened to you, but you sure can dream!
Were’ instead of ‘was’
When there is the verb to be in the if clause, we can change it from was to were. This is because
we are talking about hypothetical situations, so we’re changing the mood of the verb from
indicative to subjunctive. Both options are correct, but were is often preferred.
