3. How do these types of conditionals differ from one another in terms of its
use?
4. Why is understanding conditionals important in making meaningful

5. What is the importance of conditionals in argumentation?
CONDITIONALS
Conditionals are statements expressing the result of a particular condition.
If-clause and when-clause present the condition while the main clause explains
the results. Conditional statements may appear in both affirmative and negative
structures. In a statement, conditionals may appear first before the main clause. If
the main clause appears before conditional, the meaning of the sentence remains
the same.
Examples: If you pray hard for it, you will receive it.
You will receive it if you pray hard for it.
When you pray, God listens.
God listens when you pray.
There are different types of conditionals which include the following: (a)
zero, (b) first, (c) second and (d) third conditionals.
1. Zero conditional deals with habits and general truths such as laws. It is
formed using this structure:
if/when + present simple >> present simple
condition main clause
Examples: When you pray, God listens.
If you place it in the fridge, the water freezes.
The road closes if it is already curfew time.
2. First conditional is used in dealing with things that are possibly or likely to
happen in the future. Though this type may be formed using unless, as long as,
as soon as or in case, its most common form uses this structure:
if/when + present simple >> will + infinitive
condition main clause
Examples: If you don’t pass the test, I’ll hire a tutor for you.
The student will get a scholarship if he passes the interview.
When I am done with this, I’ll get my car to fetch you.
I’ll call your mom unless Jerome admits his fault.
I’ll stay in the company as long as they need my services.
As soon as I receive my salary, I’ll buy you a new phone.
In case Ara forgets her bag, I’ll call her mom to get it.
PIVOT 4A CALABARZON
15
3. Second conditional is used in dealing with things impossible in the present
and are unlikely to occur in the future. It is formed using this structure:
if + past simple >> would + infinitive
condition main clause
Examples: If I only passed the test, I would celebrate and party. I
would buy a new phone if I received a lot of money.
If I were a boy, I would do everything to please my girl.
4. Third conditional is used in dealing with things or change in past scenario
yielding to different results. It is formed using this structure:
if + past perfect >> would have + past participle
condition main clause
Examples: If she had performed it, Elena would have stayed in her post.
Antonio would have been an engineer if he finished his
studies.
They would have not missed the flight if they only arrived on
time.
Conditionals can be used in expressing stand or arguments. Expressing
arguments is helpful in presenting one’s reasoning to change one’s point of view
in a particular topic or issue. Conditionals may be helpful in persuading others
to move or act and even change their thoughts.
