Conditional sentences
and wishes
C1
Conditionals and wishes
1st conditional
 To talk about possible present or future situations and their
result.
 Structure:
[CLAUSE 1] + [CLAUSE 2]
If / unless + Any present tense + Any future tense
modal
imperative mood
 If we pass the exam, our parents will let us go on vacation.
 I will have finished my work tomorrow, unless my children take up all my time.
 NOTICE that unless (if + not) adds a negative meaning, so the verb used in the same
clause is in the affirmative form.
Conditionals and wishes
2nd conditional
 To talk about hypothetical or improbable situations in the present or future.
 Structure:
 If I were/was braver, I could watch more terror films.
 He might try to learn physics if only he weren’t so bad at maths.
CLAUSE 1
If + past tense (simple
or continuous)
CLAUSE 2
Would + infinitive
Could + infinitive
Might + infinitive
The Big Bang Theory and the second
conditional
3rd conditional
 To talk about a hypothetical situation in the past.
 Structure:
 They could have stayed together, if they had been sincere to each other.
 If I had been saving money, now I wouldn’t have borrowed it from my parents.
CLAUSE 1
If + past perfect (simple or
continuous)
CLAUSE 2
Would have + past participle
Could have + past participle
Might have + past participle
Conditionals and wishes
Conditionals with inversion
 To make the second and third conditionals more formal, we can use
inversion putting the auxiliaries were and had at the beginning of the
sentence.
 If you were to join the committee, we’d be very pleased.
 Were you to join the committee, we would be very pleased.
 Note that the clause making the inversion is the if-clause, and if
disappears to make room for the auxiliary.
Conditionals with inversion
 Let’s look at another example, this time with the third conditional.
 If you had arrived on time, you would have understood the lecture.
 Had you arrived on time, you would have understood the lecture.
 Once more, the clause making the inversion is the if-clause, and if
disappears to make room for the auxiliary.
Mixed conditionals
3 & 2
 The most common combination is when we have a type 3 conditional in the
if-clause (if + past perfect) followed by a type 2 conditional (would +
infinitive) in the main clause.
 With this combination we are contrasting an imagined or real event in the
past with the present result of that:
• If he'd taken the medication as prescribed, he wouldn't still be lying
sick in bed.
• If she'd taken reasonable precautions, she wouldn't be pregnant now.
• If he hadn't run after the car thief and suffered a heart attack, he'd
probably be alive today.
When we talk about mixed
conditionals, we are referring
to conditional sentences that
combine two different types
of conditional patterns.
Mixed conditionals:
2 & 3
 The other possibility is when we have a type 2 conditional in the if-
clause (if + past simple) followed by a type 3 conditional (would've +
past participle) in the main clause.
 With this combination, we are describing ongoing circumstances in
relation to a previous past event. Consider these examples:
• If you weren't such a poor dancer, you would've got a job in the
chorus line in that musical.
• If you weren't so blind to his faults, you would've realised that
he was out to swindle you.
Conditionals and wishes
Replacing if
o Unless
o Even if
o As/So long as
o Supposing
o Whether … or
o Providing
o Provided that
o Whoever; wherever; whenever
o No matter who / when / where
There are different options to if
that can be used in its place. Try
some of these.

 With the subject pronoun I both forms were / was can be used in the if-
clause.
Wishing different present situations
• To say that we would like something to be different about a present
situation, we use the past simple or the past continuous.
I wish I was/were10 years old (but I’m not).
If only I were travelling with you and not alone! It would be much
more fun.
Wishing different past situations
• To express regret about something which happened or didn’t happen in
the past, we use the past perfect.
I wish I had saved more money during my twenties (but I didn’t).
If only I hadn’t been so harsh to her! We could still be friends. (but I
was)
Wishing for change
• To express:
– a polite imperative,
– and a desire for a situation or person’s behaviour to change
we use the structure subject + would + bare infinitive.
I wish you would stop spreading rumours.
If only it would be sunny on my birthday, we could go swimming!
Human, if
only you
would feed
me, I could
go and take
a nap.

Conditionals and wishes

  • 3. 1st conditional  To talk about possible present or future situations and their result.  Structure: [CLAUSE 1] + [CLAUSE 2] If / unless + Any present tense + Any future tense modal imperative mood  If we pass the exam, our parents will let us go on vacation.  I will have finished my work tomorrow, unless my children take up all my time.  NOTICE that unless (if + not) adds a negative meaning, so the verb used in the same clause is in the affirmative form.
  • 5. 2nd conditional  To talk about hypothetical or improbable situations in the present or future.  Structure:  If I were/was braver, I could watch more terror films.  He might try to learn physics if only he weren’t so bad at maths. CLAUSE 1 If + past tense (simple or continuous) CLAUSE 2 Would + infinitive Could + infinitive Might + infinitive
  • 6. The Big Bang Theory and the second conditional
  • 7. 3rd conditional  To talk about a hypothetical situation in the past.  Structure:  They could have stayed together, if they had been sincere to each other.  If I had been saving money, now I wouldn’t have borrowed it from my parents. CLAUSE 1 If + past perfect (simple or continuous) CLAUSE 2 Would have + past participle Could have + past participle Might have + past participle
  • 9. Conditionals with inversion  To make the second and third conditionals more formal, we can use inversion putting the auxiliaries were and had at the beginning of the sentence.  If you were to join the committee, we’d be very pleased.  Were you to join the committee, we would be very pleased.  Note that the clause making the inversion is the if-clause, and if disappears to make room for the auxiliary.
  • 10. Conditionals with inversion  Let’s look at another example, this time with the third conditional.  If you had arrived on time, you would have understood the lecture.  Had you arrived on time, you would have understood the lecture.  Once more, the clause making the inversion is the if-clause, and if disappears to make room for the auxiliary.
  • 11. Mixed conditionals 3 & 2  The most common combination is when we have a type 3 conditional in the if-clause (if + past perfect) followed by a type 2 conditional (would + infinitive) in the main clause.  With this combination we are contrasting an imagined or real event in the past with the present result of that: • If he'd taken the medication as prescribed, he wouldn't still be lying sick in bed. • If she'd taken reasonable precautions, she wouldn't be pregnant now. • If he hadn't run after the car thief and suffered a heart attack, he'd probably be alive today. When we talk about mixed conditionals, we are referring to conditional sentences that combine two different types of conditional patterns.
  • 12. Mixed conditionals: 2 & 3  The other possibility is when we have a type 2 conditional in the if- clause (if + past simple) followed by a type 3 conditional (would've + past participle) in the main clause.  With this combination, we are describing ongoing circumstances in relation to a previous past event. Consider these examples: • If you weren't such a poor dancer, you would've got a job in the chorus line in that musical. • If you weren't so blind to his faults, you would've realised that he was out to swindle you.
  • 14. Replacing if o Unless o Even if o As/So long as o Supposing o Whether … or o Providing o Provided that o Whoever; wherever; whenever o No matter who / when / where There are different options to if that can be used in its place. Try some of these.
