Yes, it's a first conditional, also called conditional type 1, which refers to possible future situations. |

Yes, it true. It is a conditional sentence. In most cases we are used to recognise conditionals by the "if " clause, but there are cases when we may use "when". For eg. I'll believe if i see/ I'll believe when i see. |

hello guys, how u doing ? Well, this subject is interesting since lots of people use conditional sentences / utterances in many instances especially when they refer to a desired condition or circumstance they'd rather have . I have several conditional sentences to share and to ponder : I am a person with albinism as you see in my pic. Were you a person with albinism, what would you do ? should there be a support group / advocacy group on albinism, I would be delighted to join it. Btw i hv just created a blog on albinism community in Indonesia. U r welcome to check this out http://masyarakatalbinoindonesia.blogspot.com/. I do hope both people and parents / relatives of kids with albinism and normal people alike will be better informed and more supportive. Cheers |

I would like to share a litlle bit about conditional sentences , please correct me I am wrong. Alan.
There types of conditional type one the if clause is in the present , the main clause will be in present future . it denotes a future possibility as long as the condition is met or fulfilled . For example a Conditional love on the valentine"s day he he he , If she loves me , I will give her everything she ever thinks of .
the if clause is in the past tense, the main clause will be in past future tense . it denotes unreal present , contrary to the fact in the present .
Type two unconditional love , most recommended : I would still give her everything she ever thinks of even if she didn't love me Because she is created for me The fact she loves me
The if clause is in the past perfect, the main clause will be in past future perfect .
I would have given her everything she ever thought of if She had loved me
Type three , unreal past . this sentence denotes a wish contrary to the fact in the past . The fact she didn't love me.
we can also use inverted construction without if , If she were a girl with albinism , I would marry her ------- Were she a lady with albinism , I would marry her . Because I find out if my offspring be a person with albinism .
If you happen to meet Alan, please kindly convey my best regards to him. -------------- Should you happen to meet ..........
I think that's all for now, guys, I hope you find it useful. cheers |
