What is conditional and examples?

A conditional sentence is based on the word 'if'. There are always two parts to a conditional sentence – one part beginning with 'if' to describe a possible situation, and the second part which describes the consequence. For example: If it rains, we'll get wet.

What are English conditionals?

Conditionals describe the result of a certain condition. The if clause tells you the condition (If you study hard) and the main clause tells you the result (you will pass your exams). The order of the clauses does not change the meaning. If you study hard, you will pass your exams.

What is the first conditional?

The first conditional is used to express the future consequence of a realistic possibility now or in the future. For example, If I miss the train, I'll take the next one. There is a 50% chance that the first part of this sentence (the action following 'if') will happen.

Why do we use conditionals?

What is 1st and 2nd conditional sentences?

We use the first conditional and the second conditional to talk about present or future situations. We use the first conditional to talk about possible situations, things that may easily happen. We use the second conditional to talk about unrealistic situations. If I see Sara, I'll tell her to call you.

What is the difference between Type 2 and 3 conditional?

The point is this - the Second Conditional denotes an action that could still happen in the future, while the Third Conditional describes an event that didn't happen in the past, although it could have, and that will remain unchanged.

What is the difference between Type 2 and Type 3 conditional sentences?

Type 2 conditional refers to something possible but unlikely, a hypothetical condition and its probable result. Type 3 conditional refers to an impossible condition in the past and its probable result in the past.

What is 3rd conditional?

We use the third conditional (if + past perfect, would + have + past participle) to talk about something in the past that did not happen. How is the third conditional different from the other conditionals? This is the way we imagine how things could have been different in the past.
