Interestingly, these sentences can be found anywhere \u2014 in books, conversations that we have daily or speeches. But there\u2019s more to it. Conditional sentences can be divided into four types that you will read about in this blog. Keep reading this blog to learn all about conditionals in English grammar, their types and finally a quiz to test yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-conditionals-in-english-grammar\"><span id=\"what-are-conditionals-in-english-grammar\">What are Conditionals in English Grammar?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Conditionals are grammatical structures that express different possibilities and their outcomes. They are used to describe situations that might happen, could have happened, or are unlikely to happen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA sentence that begins with if or unless and expresses a condition\u201d is the definition of a conditional sentence as given by the Oxford Learner\u2019s Dictionary. While, Collins Dictionary says that \u201cIf something is required for a situation or agreement to occur, it will only occur or continue if this thing occurs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/explore\/learn-english\/if-clause\/\"><strong>If Clause: Know Conditionals Meaning, Types & Usage<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-types-of-conditionals-in-english-grammar-with-examples\"><span id=\"types-of-conditionals-in-english-grammar-with-examples\">Types of Conditionals in English Grammar with Examples<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the English language, conditional sentences can be divided into four types of categories, these include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Zero Conditional Sentences<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>First Conditional Sentences<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Second Conditional Sentences<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Third Conditional Sentences<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us take a look at all these conditionals in detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-zero-conditional-sentences\"><span id=\"zero-conditional-sentences\">Zero Conditional Sentences<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A zero conditional sentence refers to one which talks about <strong><em>facts and general truth<\/em><\/strong>. It also talks about situations where a particular thing or action results in another. In this type of sentence, both independent and dependent clauses are written in the simple present tense. This is mainly due to the fact the result is predicted.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get a better understanding we have compiled a few sentences:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius, it boils.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you break the law, you get punished.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you want to start the car, turn the key.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-first-conditional-sentences\"><span id=\"first-conditional-sentences\">First Conditional Sentences<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of first conditional sentences, a situation is expressed where the <strong><em>result is most likely to happen<\/em><\/strong>. However, there is no guaranteed outcome.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at some of the example sentences on how you can write:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If it rains tomorrow, we\u2019ll stay at home.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you lose your wallet, you can call the police.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you don\u2019t eat breakfast, you\u2019ll be hungry later<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-second-conditional-sentences\"><span id=\"second-conditional-sentences\">Second Conditional Sentences<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the types of sentences that are based on <strong><em>hypothetical situations or rather unrealistic events<\/em><\/strong> which are unlikely to ever happen. In these types of sentences, the tenses used are <a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/explore\/learn-english\/simple-past-tense-voice\/\"><strong>simple past tense<\/strong><\/a> for the \u2018if\u2019 clause along with the modal auxiliary along with a main verb in the independent clause.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at the below-mentioned sentences which will help you understand:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If I had a million dollars, I would buy a yacht.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you studied harder, you would get better grades.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it rained tomorrow, we would have to cancel the picnic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-third-conditional-sentences\"><span id=\"third-conditional-sentences\">Third Conditional Sentences<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Third conditional sentences are used to express <strong><em>hypothetical situations in the past that didn\u2019t happen<\/em><\/strong>. They often involve a past perfect tense in the \u201cif\u201d clause and a \u201cwould have\u201d or \u201ccould have\u201d construction in the main clause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out all the example sentences to get a better understanding of the same:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If I had studied harder, I would have passed the exam.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If we had taken a taxi, we wouldn\u2019t have missed the train.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If I hadn\u2019t been sick, I would have gone on the trip.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/explore\/learn-english\/conditional-clause-examples\/\"><strong>4 Types of Conditional Clause Examples in English You Should Know<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-additional-notes-on-conditionals-in-english-grammar\"><span id=\"additional-notes-on-conditionals-in-english-grammar\">Additional Notes on Conditionals in English Grammar<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at a few more aspects of the conditionals that you must know that will help you write in English much more easily:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Conditionals can be categorised into two categories: <em>real<\/em> and <em>unreal<\/em>. You can think of this as meaning possible or impossible. Since zero and first conditionals deal with things that are either true in general or may become true in the future, they are feasible. Because they are hypothetical or deal with previous occurrences that are beyond our control, second, third, and mixed conditionals are not feasible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Real Conditionals:<\/strong> Zero and First\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Unreal Conditionals: <\/strong>Second, Third, and Mixed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The condition clause in the second conditional uses the simple past. In more formal circumstances, it is customary to use \u2018were\u2019 when the verb \u201cbe\u201d is being employed. Informally speaking, however, was is more typical.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Formal: <\/strong>If I were you, I would drink more water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Informal: <\/strong>If I was you, I wouldn\u2019t stay out so late.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/explore\/learn-english\/past-unreal-conditional-tenses\/\"><strong>Past Unreal Conditional Examples: Definition, Structure, Rules, Exercises [PDF Available]\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"English Conditional Sentences (with examples!)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FH3ThwR99LM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Credits: mmmEnglish<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-quiz-on-conditionals-in-english-grammar\"><span id=\"quiz-on-conditionals-in-english-grammar\">Quiz on Conditionals in English Grammar<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you have gained all the information on conditional sentences, it\u2019s time to test your knowledge.
