hmm well the short answer first

hmm well the short answer first conditional we use that conditional for

conditional we use that conditional for

conditional we use that conditional for realistic situations when something is

realistic situations when something is

realistic situations when something is likely to happen it has a strong

likely to happen it has a strong

likely to happen it has a strong possibility of really happening so a

possibility of really happening so a

possibility of really happening so a real situation for example in London it

real situation for example in London it

real situation for example in London it rains a lot so if we talk about the

rains a lot so if we talk about the

rains a lot so if we talk about the possibility of rain today then I would

possibility of rain today then I would

possibility of rain today then I would use a first conditional because that

use a first conditional because that

use a first conditional because that possibility is strong it’s very likely

possibility is strong it’s very likely

possibility is strong it’s very likely that it will rain so I use a first

that it will rain so I use a first

that it will rain so I use a first conditional in this form if it rains

conditional in this form if it rains

conditional in this form if it rains today I’ll stay at home the form if with

today I’ll stay at home the form if with

today I’ll stay at home the form if with a present verb rains rains because it

a present verb rains rains because it

a present verb rains rains because it and the result of that condition is in

and the result of that condition is in

and the result of that condition is in the future I will or I’m going to both

the future I will or I’m going to both

the future I will or I’m going to both are okay again I use this because in

are okay again I use this because in

are okay again I use this because in London now always rains and the second

London now always rains and the second

London now always rains and the second conditional we use that to talk about

conditional we use that to talk about

conditional we use that to talk about imaginary hypothetical situations maybe

imaginary hypothetical situations maybe

imaginary hypothetical situations maybe that situation is not likely to happen

that situation is not likely to happen

that situation is not likely to happen not a good possibility of it happening

not a good possibility of it happening

not a good possibility of it happening or maybe it’s impossible for example if

or maybe it’s impossible for example if

or maybe it’s impossible for example if I imagine that Superman comes here now

I imagine that Superman comes here now

I imagine that Superman comes here now that’s not realistic it’s not possible

that’s not realistic it’s not possible

that’s not realistic it’s not possible so I would use a second conditional

so I would use a second conditional

so I would use a second conditional sentence if Superman came here now that

sentence if Superman came here now that

sentence if Superman came here now that sounds a bit strange we’re using a past

sounds a bit strange we’re using a past

sounds a bit strange we’re using a past verb with now well if with a past verb

verb with now well if with a past verb

verb with now well if with a past verb that’s talking about imaginary

that’s talking about imaginary

that’s talking about imaginary situations now or in the future so if

situations now or in the future so if

situations now or in the future so if Superman came here now I would say hello

Superman came here now I would say hello

Superman came here now I would say hello hello first of all you’re not real I am

hello first of all you’re not real I am

hello first of all you’re not real I am real no you’re not I’m imagining you you

this is in my head I’m going crazy or something working too hard

something working too hard

something working too hard yeah probably anyway hello and that’s

yeah probably anyway hello and that’s

yeah probably anyway hello and that’s why I use second conditional so now you

why I use second conditional so now you

why I use second conditional so now you know the difference first conditional

know the difference first conditional

know the difference first conditional real situations very likely to

real situations very likely to

real situations very likely to happen second conditional not really

happen second conditional not really

happen second conditional not really likely to happen imaginary maybe

likely to happen imaginary maybe

likely to happen imaginary maybe impossible situations so now you know

impossible situations so now you know

impossible situations so now you know the difference you can use them to give

the difference you can use them to give
