Third Conditional
ADVERB
CLAUSE
In the English language, a conditional is a sentence that expresses a
condition.
A condition is something that must happen before something else can
happen.
Conditional sentences commonly begin with words and phrases such as:
oIf
oWhen
oUnless
oeven if
oonly if
oin case
UNLESS
WHEN
IF
EVEN IF
ONLY IF
IN CASE
WHAT ARE CONDITIONAL
SENTENCES?
• We use a conditional sentence to say that one event depends on
another event, i.e. that something can only happen if something
else happens first.
• The main clause depends on the if-clause.
• Conditional sentences consist of a main clause and a conditional
clause (sometimes called an if-clause). The conditional
clause usually begins with if or unless. The conditional
clause can come before or after the main clause. We'll be
late if we don't leave now.

EXAMPLES OF THIRD
CONDITIONAL
If he had studied harder, he would have passed the exam.
• The first action (studying hard) did not happen. But in the case
that he happened, the consequence was passing the exam. The
third conditional is very similar to the second conditional. But
while the second conditional refers to something unrealistic now
or in the future, the third conditional refers to something
unrealistic in the past.
If my alarm had gone off, I wouldn’t have been late to work.
If there hadn’t been so much traffic we wouldn’t have missed our

•Incorrect:

 Correct:

Third Conditional
• It’s possible to combine the second and the third conditionals.
There are two ways of doing that. We can either,
Describe the present consequence of a past situation
If + past simple, would have + past participle
• If I were adventurous, I’d have gone backpacking after
university.
Describe the past consequence of a present situation
If + past perfect, would + verb
• If we hadn’t missed the flight, we’d be in our hotel by now.
•If I’d studied for a year in the U.S, my
English would be fluent now.
•The roads wouldn’t be so icy if it hadn’t
rained so much last night.
•If she weren’t so shy, she’d have gone to
the party on her own.
•The fans would be miserable now if their
team had been relegated.
Third Conditional
The 3rd conditional sentence structure is also called the past
unreal conditional or past hypothetical conditional.
 The word would is often contracted to ‘d by native speakers. It’s
also acceptable to use this in informal writing. And in speech it’s
common to contract have to ‘ve in the third conditional. For
example, I’d’ve come to the meeting if you’d told me.
However, we can’t write this,even in an informal context. It’s useful to
be aware of it though, so you can identify it when native speakers say
it.
 As an alternative to would, we can complete the second part of a
third conditional sentence with could. For example,
If I’d stayed at university, I could have got a masters degree.
