CONDITIONAL SENTENCES There are three different types of conditional sentences in English: 1st Type: they are called REAL conditional because if one part of the sentence becomes true the other one will also be true. IF + SUBJECT + PRESENT+, SUBJECT + WILL + INFINITIVE+ This is the most common pattern of this type of conditionals. However, you can replace the future tense by: a MODAL verb, an IMPERATIVE or even a PRESENT (Zero conditional; just when it refers to absolute truth) If you study, you will pass You can go out if you finish your homework If you see an accident, call an ambulance. If you heat butter, it melts. 2nd Type: they are called POSSIBLE or PROBABLE conditional sentences, because the realization of one part doesnt mean the realization of the other action: IF + SUBJECT + PAST+, SUBJECT+ WOULD + INFINITIVE+ . You can also find instead of WOULD: SHOULD, COULD,.. If you came to the party, you would enjoy it. I would phone him if I had his phone number. 3rd Type: they are called IMPOSSIBLE conditional sentences, because they refer to the past, and you can never change it. IF + SUBJECT + HAD + PAST PARTICIPLE+ , SUBJECT + WOULD HAVE + PAST PARTICIPLE+ If I had known the truth, I would have said it. I would have gone to the party if he had invited me. UNLESS ( a menos que; can be used instead of if not) Unless you study harder, you wont pass your exams. PROVIDING/ PROVIDED THAT (Siempre que)
Travelling by car is very convenient providing that you have somewhere to park

AS LONG AS (con tal de que, mientras que) You can use my car as long as you drive carefully. SUPPOSE/ SUPPOSING THAT (suponiendo que)
Suppose that Jack asks her for a dance, will she accept?

ON CONDITION THAT ( a condicin de que) Ill give you the money on condition that you wash my car. IN CASE (en caso de que)
