Conditions: the Basics A condition is, at its most basic, a compound sentence consisting of two parts: 1.A “if” clause 2.A main clause In grammatical terms, the “if” clause is called the protasis and the main clause is called the apodosis.

Types of Conditions Conditions, like all other verbs, can only occur at three times: present, past, and future. All the tenses have one ‘simple’ condition and one ‘subjunctive’ condition. Present: simple, contrary-to-fact Past: simple, contrary-to-fact Future: simple (more vivid), less vivid
6
Simple Conditions Simple Conditions refer to reality and, therefore, employ only ***indicative*** verbs. Present simple conditions use the present indicative, Past simple conditions use any past tense (imperfect, perfect, pluperfect) in the indicative, and Future simple conditions use the future indicative. Sī laetus es, laeta sum. = If you’re happy, I’m happy. Sī amīcōs habēbat, fortunam bonam habēbat. = If he had friends, he had good fortune. Sī hostēs nōn vincēs, tē nōn laudābit. = If you will not (do not) conquer the enemies, I shall not praise you.

Contrary-to-Fact Conditions Contrary-to-fact conditions describe statements that are false and occur in 2 tenses: The imperfect tense describes a present situation and the pluperfect tense describes a past situation. Sī pecūniam multam habērem, urbem regerem. = If I possessed a lot of money, I would rule the city. Sī dictum verum amīcae dixisses, domum tēcum cedisset. = If you had told your girlfriend a true story, she would have gone home with you.

Future Less Vivid Condition The Future Less Vivid Condition is the basic “should/would” condition in Latin (i.e., If he should X, I would Y.) It is indicated by the present subjunctive. Sī umquam mea fēmīna vocet, eam dicas: “Tuus vir domī nōn est!”= If ever my wife should call, you would say: “Your husband is not at home!” Sī īnsulā abeamus, mi amīce, fortunam bonam habeamus. = If we should leave this island, my friend, we would have good fortune. Sī bonōs inveniatis, hostēs vincamus. = If you should find (some) good men, we would conquer the enemies.

It creates emphasis by using the Future Perfect Tense in the protasis and keeping the Future Tense in the Apodosis. Sī oppidum cēperimus, poētae nosta facta canent! = If we shall have captured the town, the poets will sing our deeds.
