________________________
Second Conditional in English
🤔When do we use it?
We use the second conditional to talk about unreal, impossible or imaginary situations.
🤔How do we form it?
The structure of the second conditional has two parts: the conditional and the result. We can use these two parts in any order (Condition → Result, or Result → Condition)
Condition: IF + PAST SIMPLE
Result: WOULD + INFINITIVE
Examples of the Second Conditional
If I won the lottery, I would visit my friend in Australia.
If I were a giraffe, I would have a very long neck.
What would you do if you had more money?
If I spoke English more frequently, I would be more fluent.
I'd feel better if I didn't have a cold.
I'd go to the beach if it wasn't raining.
If I were you, I'd take the job!
---------------------------------------------------------------
Third Conditional in English
🤔When do we use it?
We use the third conditional to talk about something that did not happen in the past.
🤔How do we form it?
The structure of the third conditional has two parts: the conditional and the result. We can use these two parts in any order (Condition → Result, or Result → Condition)
Condition: IF + PAST PERFECT
Result: WOULD HAVE + PAST PARTICIPLE
Examples of the Third Conditional
If I had been tall as a child, I would have played basketball.
If I had studied harder, I would have passed the exam.
I would have gone to the beach yesterday if it hadn't rained.
If I had seen her, I would have said hello.
What would you have done if it had rained at the weekend?
I would have been angry if we had lost the game.
She would have come to class if she hadn't been busy.
Mixed Conditionals in English
🤔When do we use it?
We use the mixed conditional to talk about the probable result in the present of something that did not happen in the past.
🤔How do we form it?
The structure of the mixed conditional has two parts: the same condition of the third conditional and the same result of the second conditional. We can use these two parts in any order (Condition → Result, or Result → Condition)
Condition: IF + PAST PERFECT
Result: WOULD + INFINITIVE
---------------------------------------------------------------
Examples of the Mixed Conditional
Let’s look at some of the same examples we used with the third conditional, and talk about their possible results in the present:
If I had been tall as a child, I would be better at basketball now.
If I had studied harder, I would have a degree now.
If I had gone to the beach yesterday, I would be tanned.
If I had seen her, I would be happy.
If we had lost the game, we wouldn't be top of the league.
If he had got the job, he would be living in America now.

You are one on of the Great teachers here on UA-cam. Thanks for helping us
Thank you! You helped me a lot, I was a little bit confused with conditionals, but now I understood 💕
Hey Greg !
I've been watching and sharing your videos for a long time. Truly speaking, your videos are the best ever videos on the internet. Thanks a lot for creating and publishing such great videos.
Keeping a relation with the topic you taught in this video, I want to say a conditional sentence for you and that is "If I had wings, I would fly to meet you personally". Thanks
.
Thank you!
Great!
Easy and so clear!
If your video had been live or you had come live, I'd have answer your questions.blessings from pakistan.
Brilliant example 👏🏼 Thanks for commenting, Asma!
Thanks a lot
Thank you for the nice video, Greg!
I was wondering if it would be possible to use the contractions like this:
I'd've been angry if we'd lost the game….or is it a bit too much to contract both would and have?
QUIZ
1. If I were you I would look for another job
2. If I had bought the house 15 years ago, it would have cost much more
3. If you didn't work so much, you would have more time
4. What would you do if you met C.Ronaldo?
5. If she had called me, I would have answered
Hi Franco!
5/5 on the answers. Well done!
Regarding your question, YES, we would definitely use contractions like that in spoken English, but not in written English (not even informal written English) as it looks messy. Generally, in spoken English, we use as many contractions as possible.

Hello Greg, i wanted to thank you for your English classes - i have one question that bug me. I saw the following sentence in the BBC English learning : " If i hadn't lost my keys, i wouldn't be calling you up at midnight. Could you tell me why the form is " wouldn't be calling you up ? ( i'd have rather put : wouldn't have called you up ). Thank you so much for answering. Have a nice day.

Thanks a lot,but could we use Should and Could too ???
Oye pues para el global del día antes de Ingless esto ayudaa... Thankss
Hi Greg! Could you pleas explaine this type of conditionals : if it wasn't for you I would have fallen .
Hello, and thanks for all of that useful information. My question is about Mixed Conditional , as you said:
If he had got the job, he would be living... Shouldn't we say : he would live...
I mean would plus infinitive?
I'll be really glad, if you answer my question. Thank you in advance.
He would be living... He would live... In both cases 'would' is followed by an infinitive (be / live). The first option (be living) just puts a little more emphasis on the continuous action of 'living'.
@@EnglishWithGreg Thanks
I was asking myself what do I have to study the more to speak well, I mean I could talk to people and understand but I had a feeling that something was missing now I know thank you
Thumbs up! Clear explanation of Conditionals. Let me answer to your quiz: if I were you, i would look for another job! If I had bought the house 15 years ago, it would cost me much more. If you had worked so much, you would have more free time! What would you do if you met Cristiano Ronaldo? If she had called me i would have answered.
Thank you so much , I'm new in your chanel. Your video is so useful to me !!!

Thanks for your comments, Saeed!
Well done!! Really useful!, Thanks 👏✨
Yesterday I wrote a comment in a Newcastle United page. It was: "Thinking about Newcastle wanted to release Almirón. What a huge mistake it would had been! He's a great player.
Were my sentences correct, I mean, this "what a huge mistake it would had been". Is it right?
Thanks in advance.
Muito bom

Had I started learning English much earlier, I wouldn't be watching this lesson now.

How to use 2nd conditional for future
What were you do if you could met Cristiano
I think you forgot the second to third mixed conditional. I don't see any examples of it, unless I'm tripping. "If I weren't so afraid of spiders I would have gone to Australia a long time ago"
I would have answered
How l can know that my answered is correct?
if I was you or If I were you... explain it pls
wanted to answer some questions at the end of the video but then thought to myself: I would if I could but I can't so I won't 😆

How to formulate present perfect sentences to conditional sentences? For example....
Situation one ...
(1)I have just eaten so, I can't go out with you for dinner....how to formulate this present perfect sentense(I have just eaten)
If I did not eat, I would go out with you for dinner. Or
If I had not eaten, I would go out with you for dinner.
Any teacher has never discribed about how to convert conditional from present perfect....they always discuss about past situation but what about recent past which has connection with present....can we use second conditional or we have to use past perfect in those types of situations....please guide about recent past which has connection with present.....second situation
(2)He has killed his wife so police will arrest him.
If he did not kill(or had not killed)his wife, police would not arrest him.
Situation three...
(3)He has killed his wife so Police has arrested him.
If did not kill( or had not killed) his wife, Police would not have arrested him.
As every one says Second conditional is used for 'present' and 'future'.....dose the 'present' mean 'present simple' or' present perfect'?
Third conditional used for past tense.does it mean 'past simple' and 'resent past(present perfect)?...
Please guide me I am very eager to know your answer...
1. would
2. would have
3. ？
4. would
5. would have
🇰🇿🤗
phrase no3 : "if you didn't work so much you would have more free time" 2nd conditional
If l were you,l would be looking another job ( mixed conditioner)
If I had bought the house 15 years ago it WOULD cost much more.Is my sentence correct? Please respond to me and bye !
Thanks for answering, Pratap.
I'm afraid not. This is something that "did not happen in the past", so we need the 3rd conditional...
"If I had bought..... it would have cost...."
Try another and I'll be happy to reply with the corrections :-)
