Conditional clauses
There are four types of conditional clauses:
  • Zero conditional (present simple + present simple)
  • First conditional (present simple + will+infinitive)
  • Second conditional (past simple + would+infinitive)
  • Third conditional (past perfect + would have+past participle)

Slide 4 - Slide

Zero conditional
  • Used for statements that are always true
  • If-clause is in present simple
  • Main clause is in present simple
  • Example: If you heat ice, it melts.
  • Both clauses in present simple

Slide 5 - Slide

First conditional
  • Used for statements that are very likely to happen
  • Main clause describes what will happen
  • If-clause is in present simple
  • Main clause is in will+infinitive
  • Example: If you work hard, you will be rewarded.
  • Present simple + will+infinitive  

Slide 6 - Slide

Second conditional
  • Used when something is unlikely to happen.
  • Main clause describes what would happen in this unlikely situation
  • If-clause is in past simple
  • Main clause is would+infinitive
  • Example: If I won the lottery, I would buy a car.
  • Past simple + would+infinitive 

Slide 7 - Slide

Third conditional
  • Used when you think of a different past that would have resulted in a different outcome;
  • You can switch the if-clause and the main clause around;
  • If you switch them around, you do not use a comma;
  • If-clause is in past perfect;
  • Main clause is would have + past participle;
  • Example: If she had known it was going to rain, she would never have gone to the beach.
  • Second example (main clause first): She would never have gone to the beach if she had known it was going to rain. (NO COMMA!)

Slide 8 - Slide

To summarize
  • Zero conditional when: statements are true.
  • Example: If you heat up water, it boils.
  • First conditional when: something is likely to happen.
  • Example: If I earn enough money, I will go on holiday.
  • Second conditional when: something is unlikely to happen.
  • Example: If I was famous, I would help everyone.
  • Third conditional when: You think of a different past that would have changed the outcome.
  • Example: If she had known it was going to rain, she would have worn a raincoat.
