Conditionals are formed by two clauses; an /^clause and a main clause

Zero conditional

If + present simple // present simple • to talk about general truths If it rains, the ground gets wet

if water heats up, it turns to steam.

If + present simple // imperative • to give directions or tell

someone what to do

if your tent door is open, close it

if you need some help, ask!

1 First conditional

If + present simple // will/can/may/

If + past simple // would/could/might

• to talk about imaginary or unlikely present or future situations

ifl made a lot of money 1 could buy an aeroplane.

Ifl got to the final in the competition, 1 would celebrate with my friends.

• to give advice Ifl were you; 1 would do your homework.

Use of the if-clause in conditionals Example

We can often use the if-clause after the main clause When

we use the if-clause second, we don't use a comma.

1 will ring Sarah back if 1 get cut off

if 1 get cut off, 1 will ring Sarah back.

Use of unless in conditionals Example

We often use unless at the start of conditionals to mean

if not.

Unless is also often used with negative forms in the second

clause

Unless 1 have to help Matt with his bike; 1 will go to the party.

If I don't have to help Matt with his bike, 1 will go to the party Unless 1 go shopping, 1 won't have anything for dinner.

Ifl don't go shopping, 1 won't have anything for dinner.
