== '''Conditional Sentences''' ==
Conditional Sentences are also known as Conditional Clauses or If Clauses. They are used to express that the action in the main clause (without ''if'') can only take place if a certain condition (in the clause with ''if'') is fulfilled. There are three types of Conditional Sentences.
=== '''Type 1 (Real/possible Condition)''' ===
'''→''' It is possible and also ''very likely'' that the condition will be fulfilled.
'''Form:''' '''''if'' + Simple Present, will + V1'''
Example: If I find her address, I will send her an invitation.
=== '''Type 2 (Unreal/Imaginary Condition)''' ===
'''→''' It is possible but ''very unlikely'', that the condition will be fulfilled.
'''Form:''' '''''if'' + Simple Past, would + V1'''
Example 1: If I found her address, I would send her an invitation
Example 2: If I were a bird, I would fly high
=== '''Type 3 (Impossible Condition)''' ===
'''→''' It is ''impossible'' that the condition will be fulfilled because it refers to the past.
'''Form:''' ''if'' + '''Past Perfect, would + have + Past participle'''
Example: If I had found her address, I would have sent her an invitation.
=== '''Exercise:''' ===
