Conditional type 1 refers to possible real situations, using "if/will". Conditional type 2 refers to unreal present or future situations, using "if + past simple, + would + infinitive". Conditional type 3 refers to unreal past situations and is used to express criticism or regret, using "if + past perfect, + would + present perfect". Examples are provided for each conditional type.

- 4. If you heat ice, it melts.
- 5. Conditional 0 • Situations that are always true if something happens. • Example : → If you heat ice, it melts. → When I am late, my father takes me to school. Or If I am late, my father takes me to school. She doesn't worry if Jack stays out after school. Note that we can start with the “ if clause” or leave it to the middle, but in this case, no comma is used !
- 6. The Rule : • If/when + simple present+ , + simple present. Or • Simple present + if + simple present.
- 8. • Also Called the "real conditional” because it is used for real, possible situations. • NOTE In the conditional 1 , we often use “unless” = 'if ... not'. Example : we can say : '...unless he hurries up.' could also be written, '...if he doesn't hurry up.'. • If it rains, we will stay at home. • He will arrive late unless he hurries up. • Peter will buy a new car if he gets his raise.
- 9. Conditional type 2 I bet If I were an IpWoerde , you’d listen to me !
- 11. It’s used to talk about unreal situations in the present or in the future: Examples : If I had a million dollar, I would buy a big house If + simple past+ would + infinitive.

If you had saved your money, you could have bought a computer. Criticism: You didn't save your money, so now you can't afford a computer. If it had snowed, we could have gone skiing.
