7 GRAMMAR Conditional sentences Conditional sentences contain two parts: a) The subordinate clause which expresses a condition, usually introduced by if. b) The main clause which expresses the result of the condition. There are three types of conditional sentences, each of them with different tenses. In this unit we are going to see the first and the second conditional. First conditional: Use: The subordinate clause is introduced by if or unless and expresses a condition which is possible to become reality. The main clause predicts the consequences of the fulfilment of the condition. The most frequently used tenses in this kind of sentences are: Form: Subordinate clause: If / Unless + Present Simple Main clause: will future IF / UNLESS + PRESENT SIMPLE è FUTURE If you study, you ll pass your exam. Sub. clause Main clause Unless you study hard, you won t pass the exam. Sub. clause Main clause Variations: In some cases, the verb of the subordinate clause doesn t have the future tense. This is because we want to express a different meaning. You can see that in the following examples: To express facts in general or certain probabilities If you mix red and white, you get pink. When you mix red and white, you get pink. IF / WHEN + PRESENT è PRESENT This type of conditional is often referred to as the ZERO CONDITIONAL.

8 To express advice or suggestions IF / UNLESS + PRESENT è MODAL (May, Must, Should) If you have time, you must visit him in hospital. If you have a cold, you should go to the doctor. Unless you are tired, we may go out. To express orders or instructions If you want to know his name, ask him. IF + PRESENT è IMPERATIVE The two clauses can change their order. When the if-clause goes first, a comma is used: If you study, you ll pass your exam. = You ll pass your exam if you study. Second conditional: Use: The second conditional is used to speak about imaginary or unreal situations and their probable results. Form: Subordinate clause: If + Past Simple Main clause: Conditional Simple If I lived in China, I would learn Chinese. IF + PAST è CONDITIONAL We need to remember two things regarding this type of conditional: The modal verbs could or might can substitute would when we want to say that the result is even less likely to happen. If I knew her telephone number, I could phone her. (But I don t know it, so it s practically impossible to call her.) The verb To be has two forms in the past tense: was and were. In the past, it was only correct to use were (for all the persons) for the Second conditional. Nowadays, it is acceptable to use: If I was you If I were you, I would take the job. / If I was you, I would take the job.

9 Either... or / Neither... nor Either... or... We use this construction when we have a choice between two options. His name is either Richard or Robert. I can t remember. Either you come today or I ll never invite you again. Neither... nor... This construction is used to express that both options are not true. She neither phoned nor sent the fax. I ve got neither time nor money to go on holiday. * * Remember that neither is a negative conjunction, and as always in English, when we use a negative particle, the verb must be affirmative. Singular and plural If both elements are singular, then the verb must also be singular. The same applies if both elements are plural. Either her brother or her sister has to take care of her. Neither her brothers nor her sisters have to take care of her. If one of the elements is plural and the other singular, we use the plural form of the verb. Neither her brother nor her sisters have to take care of her. Reflexive pronouns Use: Reflexive pronouns are used to refer back to the subject of a sentence, or clause, when the subject and object are the same and the action of the subject has an impact on the object. Compare: Sarah cut herself. George bought himself a new shirt. I blame myself for the accident. Jim saw him in the shopping centre. Jim saw himself in the mirror. Form: Reflexive pronouns for the first and second person are formed by adding the suffix -self in singular, or -selves in plural, to possessive adjective. In the third person they are formed by adding the suffix -self or -selves to the object pronouns.

10 PERSONAL PRONOUNS SUBJECT I YOU HE SHE IT WE YOU THEY REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS MYSELF YOURSELF HIMSELF HERSELF ITSELF OURSELVES YOURSELVES THEMSELVES OBJECT ME YOU HIM HER IT US YOU THEM POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES MY YOUR HIS HER ITS OUR YOUR THEIR Reflexive verbs: There are some verbs that are called reflexive verbs because they require the use of a reflexive pronoun, at least in some of their meanings: To enjoy oneself: Did you enjoy yourself? To behave oneself: Be good and behave yourself. Nevertheless, some of the verbs that are reflexive in your language are not reflexive in English, so we need to be careful when we translate: Concentrate: I can t concentrate. You re making too much noise. Feel: Do you feel comfortable on the sofa? Relax: Why don t you lie down for a while and relax? Meet: Looking for a temporary job / Spoil yourself! / If I were you...

11 Where can we meet? Shave: He shaves every morning. Often a reflexive pronoun of another language is translated into English by using a structure with the verb get. to get up to get dressed to get red, nervous, aggressive, etc. By + Reflexive pronoun: Somebody did something on his own. She learned to read Italian by herself. They can also be used as the object of a preposition when it is the same as the subject: She bought a birthday cake for herself. Joining sounds When we speak in English, we tend to join or link words to each other so that they are easy to say and flow together smoothly. That is why the words in a sentence do not always sound the same as when they are used individually. Joining sounds in English is very important to both understand people and make other people understand you. These are the most common sounds that are joined in English: - consonant > vowel We join words that end with a consonant sound to words that begin with a vowel sound. E.g.: I need it. - vowel > vowel We link words that end with a vowel sound to words that begin with a vowel sound. E.g.: Take it; I don t need it any more. In addition, we can also join words that end in a consonant sound to words that begin in the same consonant sound. We don t pronounce twice the same sound. E.g.: That was a big grape I just ate.
