IF CONDITIONAL TYPE 3

 

Assalamu'alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuh.

Welcome back to my blog.

In this blog I will submit an article about IF CONDITIONAL TYPE THREE. And at the end of this blog, I will provide a dialogue video about IF CONDITIONAL TYPE THREE that I practice with my friend named Lutfi Kharisma.

 

IF CONDITIONAL TYPE 3

Form

In a type 3 conditional sentence, the tense in the "if" clause is the past perfect, and the tense in the main clause is the perfect conditional or the perfect continuous conditional.

If clause (condition)	Main clause (result)
If + past perfect	perfect conditional or perfect continuous conditional
If this thing had happened	that thing would have happened.

As in all conditional sentences, the order of the clauses is not fixed. You may have to rearrange the pronouns and adjust punctuation when you change the order of the clauses, but the meaning is identical.

Examples

• If it had rained, you would have gotten wet.
• You would have gotten wet if it had rained.
• You would have passed your exam if you had worked harder.
• If you had worked harder, you would have passed your exam.
• I would have believed you if you hadn't lied to me before.
• If you hadn't lied to me before, I would have believed you.

Function

The type 3 conditional refers to an impossible condition in the past and its probable result in the past. These sentences are truly hypothetical and unreal, because it is now too late for the condition or its result to exist. There is always some implication of regret with type 3 conditional sentences. The reality is the opposite of, or contrary to, what the sentence expresses. In type 3 conditional sentences, the time is the past and the situation is hypothetical.

Examples

• If I had worked harder I would have passed the exam. (But I didn't work hard, and I didn't pass the exam.)
• If I had known you were coming I would have baked a cake. (But I didn't know and I didn't bake a cake.)
• I would have been happy if you had called me on my birthday. (But you didn't call me and I am not happy.)

In type 3 conditional sentences, you can also use modals in the main clause instead of "would" to express the degree of certainty, permission, or a recommendation about the outcome.

Examples

• If I had worked harder I might have passed the exam.
• You could have been on time if you had caught the bus.
• If he called you, you could go.
• If you bought my school supplies for me, I might be able to go to the park.

Contractions

Both would and had can be contracted to 'd, which can be confusing if you are not confident with type 3 conditional sentences. Remember 2 rules:
1. would never appears in the if-clause so if 'd appears in the if clause, it must be abbreviating had.
2. had never appears before have so if 'd appears on a pronoun just before have, it must be abbreviating would.

Examples

• If I'd known you were in hospital, I'd have visited you.
• If I had known you were in hospital, I would have visited you.
• I'd have bought you a present if I'd known it was your birthday.
• I would have bought you a present if I had known it was your birthday.
• If you'd given me your e-mail, I'd have written to you.
• If you had given me your e-mail, I would have written to you.

The perfect conditional tense

The perfect conditional of any verb is composed of three elements:
would + have + past participle
Have followed by the past participle is used in other constructions as well. it is called the "perfect infinitive".

 

Subject	+ would	+ have	+ past participle
He	would	have	gone
They	would	have	stayed

SECOND TYPE IF CONDITIONAL

Assalamu'alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuh.

Welcome back to my blog.

In this blog I will submit an article about SECOND TYPE IF CONDITIONAL. And at the end of this blog, I will provide a dialogue video about SECOND TYPE IF CONDITIONAL that I practice with my friend named Lutfi Kharisma.

SECOND TYPE IF CONDITIONAL

Form

In a type 2 conditional sentence, the tense in the "if" clause is the simple past, and the tense in the main clause is the present conditional or the present continuous conditional.

If clause (condition)	Main clause (result)
If + simple past	present conditional or present continuous conditional
If this thing happened	that thing would happen.

As in all conditional sentences, the order of the clauses is not fixed. You may have to rearrange the pronouns and adjust punctuation when you change the order of the clauses, but the meaning is identical.

Examples

• If it rained, you would get wet.
• You would get wet if it rained.
• If you went to bed earlier you wouldn't be so tired.
• You wouldn't be so tired if you went to bed earlier.
• If she fell, she would hurt herself.
• She would hurt herself if she fell.

Function

The type 2 conditional refers to an unlikely or hypothetical condition and its probable result. These sentences are not based on the actual situation. In type 2 conditional sentences, the time is now or any time and the situation is hypothetical.

 

Examples

•  If the weather wasn't so bad, we would go to the park. (But the weather is bad so we can't go.
•  If I was the Queen of England, I would give everyone a chicken. (But I am not the Queen.)
•  If you really loved me, you would buy me a diamond ring.
• If I knew where she lived, I would go and see her.

The second conditional uses the past simple after if, then 'would' and the infinitive:

if + past simple, ...would + infinitive

(We can use 'were' instead of 'was' with 'I' and 'he/she/it'. This is mostly done in formal writing).

It has two uses.

First, we can use it to talk about things in the future that are probably not going to be true. Maybe I'm imagining some dream for example.

•          If I won the lottery, I would buy a big house.(I probably won't win the lottery)
•       If I met the Queen of England, I would say hello.
•      She would travel all over the world if she were rich.
•      She would pass the exam if she ever studied.(She never studies, so this won't happen)

Second, we can use it to talk about something in the present which is impossible, because it's not true. Is that clear? Have a look at the examples:

• If I had his number, I would call him. (I don't have his number now, so it's impossible for me to call him).
• If I were you, I wouldn't go out with that man.

How is this different from the first conditional?

This kind of conditional sentence is different from the first conditional because this is a lot more unlikely.

For example (second conditional): If I had enough money I would buy a house with twenty bedrooms and a swimming pool (I'm probably not going to have this much money, it's just a dream, not very real)

But (first conditional): If I have enough money, I'll buy some new shoes (It's much more likely that I'll have enough money to buy some shoes)

Notes:

1. The sentence can begin with an if clause or a main clause. If the sentence begins with an ‘if clause’, put a comma between the if clause and the main clause.

If + past tense, or could + (,) +  present unreal conditional ( would  or modals )

Present unreal conditional ( would or modals ) + if + past tense, or could

Examples:

• If I went to Paris, I would see the Eiffel Tower. / I would see the Eiffel Tower if I went to Paris.
• If you had a n invitation card, you should go to the party. / You should go to the party if you had an invitation card.
• If we used the time properly, we would finish our project. / we would finish our project if we used the time properly.

2. If you want, we can use modals in both ‘ıf clause’ and ‘main clause’ or you can use modals only in one part.

Examples:

• If I had enough experience fort he job, the boss could hire him.
• If I could speak english very well, I would look for a job in foreign companies.
• If I understood what the teacher said, I could tell you.

3. In ‘If Clauses Type 2’, we usually use ‘were’ which is past form of ‘to be’ instead of ‘was’ although the pronoun is ‘I, he, she or it’.

Examples:

• If I were you, I wouldn’t marry with him.
• If she were ill, she couldn’t attend the meeting.
• If it weren’t snowy, I would go out.

4. In Type 2, one or two of the clauses can be negative

Examples:

• If I woke up late, I wouldn’t I be aware of what happened.
• If my mother did not remind me, I would forget my worksheet at home.
• If she were angry, she wouldn’t not talk to us.

5. Using Type2 in questions

Examples:

• What would happen if humans disappeared?
• What would we do firstly if a fire broke out?
• Would you cry if he left you?
• What would happen if you didn’t drink water?
• What would you do if you learned that you had a bad illness?

6. Tenses and structures can be used in If Clauses- Type 2 are given below:

In If Clause; past form of to be, past continuous tense, should, could and had to are also used.

Examples:

• If you were clever, you would understand what I meant.
• If she were cooking, I would help her.
• If he could come here, they would show him something that you would like.
• If I had to attend to the meeting, I would miss the plane.
• If she should join us (were to join us), She wouldn’t be bored.

In Main clause; would, would be doing, could, would be able to, might ve would have to are also used.

Examples:

• If I had one more chance, I would try to find out where I made the mistake.
• If it weren’t important, I would not be looking for him right now.
• If I had a good education, I could apply for a job abroad.
• If he earned lots of money, he would be able to buy a new car.
• If we had time, we might get the course.
• If she did not finish the project, she would have to get up early today.

7. Would can be written short as ‘d’. You can always use this abbreviation.

Example:

• If you lost time, you would ( you’d ) miss the bus.

Special blog: National Doctors Day and Youth Pledge Day

Assalamu'alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuh.

Welcome back to my blog. 

In this special blog, as already in the title, I will discuss the commemoration of National Doctor's Day and Youth Pledge Day organized by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Education Office.

Today, Monday, October 26, 2020 is a special day for all of us, because today we commemorate National Doctor's Day and Youth Pledge Day. And to commemorate National Doctor's Day on October 24 and Youth Pledge Day on October 28, 2020. The DKI Jakarta Provincial Education Office held various events with the theme "Unite to Awaken for a Healthy Jakarta". The peak event on October 26, 2020 will feature the artistic and cultural creations of DKI Jakarta students.

At the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, we can only celebrate and commemorate national holidays virtually, as we are doing now, which is to commemorate National Doctors Day and Youth Pledge Day only through online.

This event was held to commemorate National Doctor's Day and Youth Pledge Online, which is carried out through the Zoom application and we can watch it from home via Youtube because during this pandemic, we also have to apply health protocols or it can also be called 3M

• Using a mask
• Wash your hands with soap
• Keep the distance

The youth pledge should make Indonesia a better one, not be divided. Currently, it is a proving period for all Indonesians how this pandemic becomes a momentum for all to unite, work hand in hand to provide enthusiasm to fight the corona virus to become a healthy Indonesia.

The world, is in the hands of youth, when youth are united, no one can beat. now is the right time for all of us, especially young Indonesians to encourage each other, to help doctors and nurses who are at the forefront of fighting the Covid-19 virus by reminding each other and obeying government orders to implement protocols health.

The role of youth during a pandemic like this is very much needed, because young people can take part in overcoming the covid-19 virus pandemic, for example raising funds for medical personnel, reminding each other to implement health protocols and others.

On the Youth Pledge Day, we are obliged to interpret the contents of the youth oath. And appreciate it by working with each ability. I believe that Indonesian youths and girls practice the values ​​of Pancasila every day. Like praying every day, deliberation, creative, innovative and volunteering to help others. It was enough to celebrate this youth's oath day.

The Youth Pledge describes youths who are creative and innovative, not youths who like to be anarchist and discriminatory.

That's the content of the special blog National Doctor's Day and Youth Pledge Day, more or less apologize, see you in the next blog.
