Definition: Conditionals are sentences that discuss real and unreal situations. They are saying that you think an action will happen if another action happens. They also suggest ideas about a topic. There are two kinds of conditional sentences: real and unreal. Real conditional sentences describe real-life situations. (Examples 1 and 2) Unreal conditional sentences describe unreal, imaginary situations. (Examples 3 and 4) |
Examples: 1. If the weather is too hot, we will not go to the beach. (real, not imaginary) 2. My mom always cooked when I was younger. (real, not imaginary) 3. If I could fly, I would go to California. (unreal, imaginary) 4. If I had I million dollars, I would buy my own island. (unreal, imaginary) |
