Chapter 6.2: Second Conditional

Can-do statement: I can talk about imaginary situations.

 

Second Conditional

 

You use the Second Conditional to talk about the present or future result of an imaginary situation.

 

Imaginary situation            ---------->          Result

If + Past Simple                                          Would/Wouldn't + verb

 

EXAMPLE:

If I had a day off tomorrow, I would spend it with a friend.

If I was super rich, I'd live in a big house.

Notes:

- 'd = would

- If I/he/she/it were ... is more formal than If I/he/she/it was ...

EXAMPLE: If he were rich, he wouldn't work.                            If I were you, I'd get a job
