1. CONDITIONALS

2. Real Conditionals Real conditionals are sentences that describe situations that occur regularly or are possible in the future. If we don’t get to the station on time, the train will leave without us. In present-time situations, use the simple present in both clauses to describe habitual or regularly occurring actions. In future-time situations, use the simple present in the if clause and the future with will or be going to in the result clause. If I don’t put sun lotion on, I get a bad sunburn.

3. FOCUS ON GRAMMAR Often called the "real" conditional because it is used for real - or possible - situations. These situations take place if a certain condition is met. NOTE In the conditional 1 we often use unless which means 'if... not'. In other words, '...unless he hurries up.' could also be written, '...if he doesn't hurry up.'. CONDITIONAL 1 If it rains, we will stay at home. He will arrive late unless he hurries up. Peter will buy a new car if he gets his raise. If I have time, I will go to the movies tonight. Situations that are always true if something happens. NOTE This use is similar to, and can usually be replaced by a time clause using 'when' (example: When I am late, my father takes me to school.) CONDITIONAL 0 If I am late, my father takes me to school. She doesn't worry if Jack stays out after school. UsageExamples
