Well, I don't understand why. English conditionals are really not that difficult. So I'm going to explain to you very, very simply how and when to use the zero, first, second, third, and mixed conditionals in English. And you're going to see that English conditionals are really not that scary. Okay, listen carefully because this definition of a conditional sentence is really going to help you for the whole of the rest of the lesson. Okay, a conditional sentence is basically two parts to a sentence. Part one starts with the word if, and this is the condition. Like, if this happens, then the second part of the sentence is the result. The result, if that condition is true. So if this happens, that happens. If ... Okay? And we can change the order of this so we can say ... If ... It doesn't matter which order we put them in. But you must really make a division between the two parts of the sentence if + condition | result. Okay, have you got that? Because the zero, first, second, and third conditionals all have that in common, that is the structure of a conditional sentence. And the only reason we have a zero, first, second, and third conditionals all have that in common. That is the structure of a conditional sentence. And the only reason we have a zero, first, second, and third conditional are to talk about different tenses of that condition. So let's have a look at these conditionals starting with the zero conditional, and you can download a summary of all the conditionals, including the examples and even a test to test your knowledge of the conditionals in English by downloading that PDF, which is free. And there's a link to that in the description. Okay, let's get going. Okay, so as I mentioned, we have two parts to the sentence, if plus the condition and the result. With the zero conditional, they both need to be in the present simple. Both of these parts of the sentence need to be in the present simple. And we use this zero conditional to talk about facts, things that happen all the time or scientific facts. So for example, if water reaches zero degrees, it freezes. Or, water freezes if it reaches zero degrees. We can also use the word when in the zero conditional instead of the word if. So we can say, if you heat ice, it melts. Or when you heat ice, it melts. Or changing the order, ice heats when you melt it. It's hot when the sun shines. Questions in the zero conditional normally start with do or does, a question, and we normally put the if part, the condition at the end of the sentence. Does metal melt when you heat it? Does rain turn to snow if it's 3 degrees Celsius? So quite simply, if you're talking about facts or things that always happen, use the zero conditional. Easy. Of course, we have two parts to the first conditional.
