Now that we have undertaken the verbs conditional quiz, let's get to know a little bit more about conditionals. 

What is Conditional?

There are a number of structures in English that refer to conditionals or if conditionals. The English term "condition" refers to "situation or circumstance". If a specific condition is true, then a specific outcome occurs. This is to say for example;-

if x = 4 then 3x = 12

There are three standard English conditionals in addition to a so-called zero conditional. Besides, there are several more conditionals that we do not use more often.

Conditional Types

Following are the basic English conditionals:-

1. First conditional

2. Second conditional

3. Third conditional

4. Zero conditional      

1. First Conditional

This type of conditional is mainly used to show real possibility. For example,

If I get the scholarship, I will study abroad.

In such a context, we talk about the future. We are thinking about a specific situation or a circumstance in the future, and the outcome of this situation. It simply implies there is a real possibility that this condition will take place. For example, it is a weekday. You are at the office. You plan to play cricket this evening. But there are clouds in the sky. Imagine if it rains. What will you do? Let’s see the first conditional sentence structure.

2. Second Conditional

This type of conditional is mainly used to show unreal possibility. For example,

If I get a free movie ticket, I would watch a movie.

The second conditional is somewhat similar to the first conditional such that we are still imagining about the future. We are thinking about a specific situation in the future, and the outcome of this condition. But there is not a real possibility that this condition will take place. For example, you do not have a free movie ticket. Is it possible to have a free ticket? No! No free ticket, no movie! But maybe you will buy a ticket in the future. So you can think about watching the movie in the future. It's not very likely, but it's still possible. Let’s see the second conditional sentence structure.

3. Third Conditional

This type of conditional is mainly used to display NO possibility. For example,

If I had won the prize money, I would have bought a villa

As per the English grammar rules, the first conditional and second conditionals make reference to the future. On the other hand, with the third conditional we talk about the past. We talk about a condition in the past that did NOT take place. This is the reason that there is no possibility for this condition. The third conditional can be considered as a dream, but with no likeliness of the dream coming true.

Let’s see the third conditional sentence structure.

4. Zero Conditional

This type of conditional is mainly used to display certainty. For example,

When you freeze water, it becomes ice.

We use this so-called zero conditional when the outcome of the condition is invariably true, like a scientific fact.

Take some water in a tray. Place it in the freezer. Close the freezer. What will happen? The water freezes (becomes ice). In fact, you would be surprised if it did not. Let’s check the zero conditional sentence structure.

Conclusion 

the uses of the conditional verbs as mentioned is classified into three types and are thus based on the time expressed in the if clause. A thing to remember is that the one-step backward in time is in the condition clause.
