Well done! But what have we done exactly?
  • When, if or both?
  • What steps do you need to take to figure this out?
  • 1. Is the sentence about something general?
  • ... you heat ice, it turns to water
  • ... you're very ill, you should see a doctor
  • Yes? Then you can use both when and if!

Slide 4 - Slide

When, if or both?
  •  But what if the sentence is not general?
  • 2. Is the situation sure or very likely to happen?
  • We'll see each other at Christmas ... I come to eat at your place.
  • If yes, you can use when.

  • 3. Is the situation not very likely to happen?
  • ... I'm better, I'll visit you next week
  • If yes, you can use if.

The holes in my apologies, you know

And you feel like falling down
I'll carry you home
