Conditional sentences — reference

In English, there are complex sentences where one part is the condition (starts with "if") and the second part is the consequence, the result of what happens if the condition works. We call such sentences conditionals.

Three types of conditionals

Type	Meaning	Condition	Result	Example
I	a real, feasible condition	if + Present Simple	Future Simple	If you go away, I will miss you.
II	an imaginary condition that refers to the present or to the future	if + Past Simple	would + infinitive	If you went away, I would miss you.
III	an imaginary condition that refers to the past	if + Past Perfect	would + have + past participle	If you had gone away, I would have missed you.
