about the possibility of something
happening in the future. We use will to
make the first conditional.
"If John invites me, I will go to
the party." - John is having a party,
but I will only go when he invites me.
"If it snows, we will go
skiing." - It looks like there is a chance
of snow later. When the snow comes, we
will go snowing. No snow, no skiing!
Just
like
the
first
conditional,
the second conditional is used to
talk about the future; however, it refers
to situations which are often unreal. It is
used
to
talk
about
dream
situations. Would is used in the second
conditional to show an unreal situation.
"If I were a millionaire, I
would buy a yacht." - I am not a
millionaire. I need to be a millionaire
before I can buy a yacht. It is only a dream
at this stage. There is a small chance that I
could be a millionaire in the future.
Use COULD, MIGHT to replace the
conditional WOULD.
