Zero conditional
Zero conditional is used when you are talking about things that are generally true all
the time. In this type of conditional they use the present simple in both clauses.
If you heat wax, it always melts.
When you run fast, you always get out of breath.
If you run away from a dog, he is sure to chase you.
First conditional
First conditional is used when you are talking about something that might
happen in the future. In this type of conditional they usually choose will for the
consequence clause, with the
in the present simple:
If I'm fired, I'll have to look for another job.
They will get divorced, if the things come worse.
Other modal verbs can be used in the consequence clause, like can, may, be
going to in place of will.
We may have dinner inside the house, if it is too cold.
If someone comes round, we can have fun.
Second conditional
They use the second conditional to talk about the consequence of impossible or
unlikely events or situations in the present or future. The verb pattern is past simple
in the
and would
infinitive in the consequence clause:
THE CONDITIONAL THE CONSEQUENCE
If I passed Paul on the street, I wouldn't recognize him.
If I worked at the stock exchange, I would know everything about bonds.
They often use were in the place of was in the if clause, especially in the
phrases giving advice.
If I were you, I would go for an interview.
I would be more insistent, if I were right.
If they use was, it sounds more informal.
Very often contraction form is used after a pronoun (e.g. we'd, he'd, she'd etc.)
Third conditional
They use this type of conditional when they refer to the past and to an action or
situation that did not happen.
