B1 LESSON 2: ORACIONES CONDICIONALES

                                     CONDITIONAL SENTENCES

 There are several structures in English that are called conditionals.

 There are three basic conditionals that we use very often.

 CONDITIONAL TYPE ONE: REAL CONDITIONAL

Se forma con if + presente + simple future.

Se emplea cuando una situación es real o posible: 

Por ej.

              If it rains today, I'll stay at home. (si llueve hoy no 

                       tengo  otro plan que quedarme en casa) 

 ¿Cómo se forma?

If clause + Main clause

                   If + Present tense  +    will / can / may / might/ must +                                                           verb
