WEBVTT 00:00.180 --> 00:02.370 Welcome to this tutorial. 00:02.370 --> 00:07.580 Today we're going to talk about conditionals overview. 00:07.650 --> 00:19.220 Let's get started now conditionals are sentences with two closets a main clause and in its class notes 00:19.490 --> 00:26.540 that conditionals state that the action in the main clause can only take place if a certain condition 00:26.870 --> 00:30.220 in the if clause is fulfilled. 00:30.240 --> 00:33.220 Have a look at the example over here. 00:33.510 --> 00:36.850 If we don't hurry we will be late. 00:36.930 --> 00:45.990 Now this is a conditional sentence and it's used to talk about an action that can only take place being 00:45.990 --> 00:46.410 late. 00:46.770 --> 00:56.880 If we do not hurry now the order of the mean end if clause is not fixed although when the if clause 00:56.880 --> 00:58.610 precedes the main one. 00:58.800 --> 01:01.410 Make sure to use a comma. 01:01.490 --> 01:05.620 Now there are five types of conditionals in English. 01:05.770 --> 01:15.270 Let's have a look at those conditionals a zero conditionals zero conditionals are used to describe things 01:15.270 --> 01:18.800 that are always or generally true. 01:19.410 --> 01:27.200 Thus we refer to the real impossible situations general truths or scientific facts. 01:27.230 --> 01:36.200 Note the zero conditionals follow the pattern if plus present simple present simple. 01:36.300 --> 01:39.510 Have a look at the example below. 01:39.510 --> 01:41.860 If the food is too spicy. 01:42.000 --> 01:42.800 Drink milk. 01:44.150 --> 01:47.420 Now this sentence refers to a general truce 01:50.420 --> 01:56.280 B conditionals type one or for its conditionals. 01:56.330 --> 02:05.510 Now these conditionals are used to describe future events that will happen or are likely to happen. 02:05.510 --> 02:09.290 Note that these sentences are based on facts. 02:09.290 --> 02:18.000 Thus we make statements about the real world or particular situation remember the first conditionals 02:18.120 --> 02:29.590 follow the pattern is plus present simple and future simple have a look at the example below if everything 02:29.590 --> 02:34.070 goes according to plan we'll be very rich. 02:34.110 --> 02:38.630 Now this sentence describes a future that is likely to happen 02:41.650 --> 02:47.420 see conditionals type 2 or second conditionals. 02:47.440 --> 02:56.380 Now these conditionals are used to describe hypothetical unlikely or even impossible situations. 02:56.470 --> 02:59.820 These sentences are not based on fact. 02:59.830 --> 03:10.620 Thus we can refer to any time note as second conditionals follow the pattern if plus parse simple and 03:10.980 --> 03:15.880 would plus first have a look at the example below. 03:16.230 --> 03:22.170 If I won the lottery I would put the money in the bank. 03:22.210 --> 03:29.090 Now this sentence describes a situation or a future that is unlikely to happen. 03:32.190 --> 03:42.120 D conditionals type 3 or 3rd conditionals these conditionals are used to describe a past event that 03:42.210 --> 03:45.320 is different to what we happen. 03:45.330 --> 03:49.040 These sentences are solely hypothetical. 03:49.080 --> 03:54.240 Thus there is always some implication of regret. 03:54.250 --> 04:04.180 Note the third conditionals follow the pattern is plus past perfect and would have class verb EDI or 04:04.440 --> 04:06.450 the past participle. 04:06.450 --> 04:09.730 Have a look at the example below. 04:09.730 --> 04:15.450 If we hadn't slept in we wouldn't have missed our flight. 04:15.470 --> 04:23.690 Now this sentence is used to describe a past event that is different for what really happened. 04:23.690 --> 04:27.230 And note that there is an implication of regrets 04:30.250 --> 04:37.930 e mixed conditionals now mixed conditionals preferred conditional sentences that combine two different 04:37.930 --> 04:40.390 types of conditional patterns. 04:40.690 --> 04:47.980 They are used to refer to a time in the past and a situation that is ongoing in the present. 04:48.070 --> 04:57.720 Remember the mixed conditionals usually follow the pattern if plus past perfect and would force verb. 04:57.750 --> 05:00.770 Have a look at the example below. 05:00.820 --> 05:06.340 If they had argued less they would be a perfect couple. 05:06.340 --> 05:12.760 Note that there are two different types of conditional patterns in the sentence and they are referring 05:12.760 --> 05:18.250 to a time in the past and a situation that is ongoing in the present.
