Conditional
Sentences
You
often suppose, right? Also it is often imply-if, right? Well imply-if it was
said to be a conditional sentence. Conditional sentence in the English language
support is divided into 3 types: possible future condition (condition that may
occur in the future), present unreal condition (condition that is not possible
/ not real now), and past unreal condition (a condition that is not real / not
real in the past).
Into
three types above usually called type 1, type 2, and type 3. For type 1 is also
commonly called a conditional sentence. Example: if it is not raining, I'll go
play futsal afternoon. So in the example sentence modality (conditional
sentence) there are conditions. Requirement is that if it is not raining. As
for type 1 and type 2 is said to be a presupposition sentences that do not fit
or do not fit with the reality of facts, language daily called suppose.
Example:
· If
only I had wings. (Fact: I do not have wings).
· I
hope you now by my side. (Fact: you are not beside me now).
· If
only I had enough money, I would have bought the car. (Fact: I do not have
enough money, and I did not / do not buy the car).
Well
the above is included in the type 2 and type 3. Continues difference what? Want
to know? Curious huh? ^ _ ^ Good meaning if curious hehehehe .... Later on ya
described below. Patience ya1 ^ _ ^. Keep smiling wrote. Now we explain the
three types above one by one.
1.
Conditional Sentence Type 1
Formula:
IF +
S + VERB (PRESENT), S + VERB (PRESENT)
Or
IF +
S + VERB (PRESENT), S + WILL + VERB
Example:
a.

b.

c.

d.

h.

In
the example sentence (e) and (f), to both have a meaning that is not much
different. The difference is added to the word sentences should (f) means less
confident than in sentence (e). For the words provided, providing, and said in
case has the same functionality with the word if. The difference is in terms of
meaning. If: if; Provided / providing: so long as / so long as: Tome might be
coming.
Note:
if the word was in the middle of a sentence if there is no comma between the
both. Example:
· If
I see him, I will give him a peace of my mind. (Use a comma)
· I
will give him a peace of my mind if I see him. (No commas)
