Slide 8 - Quiz

first conditional 
 We use the first conditional to talk about possible actions/situations in the future, and their (possible) results.

We often make conditional sentences by using if + present simple in the if-clause, and will/won’t / might/might not in the main clause.

If I have time this afternoon, I’ll go for a walk.
We might go out tonight if there’s nothing good on TV

second conditional 
 We use the second conditional to talk about unreal or imagined situations in the present or future.

If I was good at tennis, I would play for the school team. (= I am not good at tennis, and don’t play for the school team.)

She wouldn’t be in the photography class if she wasn’t interested in it. (= She is here because she is interested in it.)

Slide 10 - Slide

second conditional 
The second conditional has two parts (or clauses). We usually make the second
conditional like this:
If clause =  if + past simple + comma 
Main clause = would/wouldn’t + main verb
If I lived in town, I’d go to the cinema more often.
If he was nicer, more people would talk to him.
 
We can change the order of the two clauses if we want to. When we put the if clause first, we write a comma (,) after it. If we put the main clause first, there is no comma.
I would go to the cinema more often if I lived in town.
