Presentation transcript:

If I do … and If I did …

Compare these examples: (1)Lisa lost her watch. She tells Sue: Lisa: I’ve lost my watch. Have you seen it anywhere? Sue: No, but if I find it, I’ll tell you. In this example, Sue feels there is a real possibility that she will find the watch. So she says: if I find …, I’ll …. (2)Joe says: If I found a wallet in the street, I would take it to the police station. This is a different type of situation. Here, Joe doesn’t expect to find a wallet in the street; he is imagining a situation that will probably not happen. So he says: If I found …, I would (= I would) …. (not if I find …, I’ll …)

When you imagine something like this, you use if + past (if I found / if there was / if we didn’t etc.). But the meaning is not past: -What would you do if you won a million pounds? (we don’t really expect this to happen) -I don’t really want to go to their party, but I probably will go. They would be upset if I didn’t go. -If there was (or were) an election tomorrow, who would you vote for?

We do not normally use would in the if-part of the sentence: I would be very frighten if somebody pointed a gun at me. (not if somebody would point) If I didn’t go to their party, they would be upset. (not If I wouldn’t go) But you can use if … would when you ask somebody to do something: (from a formal letter) I would be grateful if you would let me know your decision as soon as possible.

In the other part of the sentence (not the if-part) we use would / wouldn’t: -If you took more exercise, you’d (= you would) feel better. -I’m not tired. If I went to bed now, I wouldn’t sleep. -Would you mind if I used your phone? Could and might are also possible: - If you took more exercise, you might feel better. (= it is possible that you would feel better) If it stopped raining, we could go out. (= we would be able to go out) Do not use when in sentences like those mentioned above: They would be upset if I didn’t go to their party. (not when I didn’t go) What would you do if you were bitten by a snake? (not when you were bitten)
