I. UNREAL CONDITIONAL SENTENCES WITH IF CLAUSES.

These sentences are used to speculate about the present. It follows the following pattern:

IF + PAST, WOULD/COULD/MIGHT + VERB IN SIMPLE FORM

NOTE: It’s common to use the contraction ‘D instead of WOULD

Examples:

1.If I had more free time, I would go kayaking. (I don’t have a lot of free time, so I don’t go kayaking)
2. If my father were rich, he could send me to Harvard. (My father isn’t reach, so he can’t send me to Harvard)
3. If I didn’t have a girlfriend, I might go out with Tina. (I have a girlfriend, so I probably won’t go out with Tina)
4. We wouldn’t have to study tonight if wedidn’t have a test tomorrow. (We have to study tonight because we will have a test tomorrow).
5. I might not watch too much TV if I were more interested in reading. (I probably watch too much TV because I’m not interested in reading)

NOTE: All the verbs in the IF CLAUSE are in PAST TENSE, but if you use the verb BE, it must be WERE for all the persons. (If I were, if you were, if hewere, if it were, if John were, if the pollution were…)

The patterns for interrogative sentences are the following:

WOULD + SUBJECT + VERB + IF + PAST

QUESTION WORD + WOULD + SUBJECT + VERB + IF + PAST

Examples:
1. Would you marry Sue if you loved her? Yes, I would. / No, I wouldn’t
2. What would you do if you were rich? If I were rich, I’d buy a big house.
3. Where would youstudy if you had a choice? If I had a choice, I might study at IPN.
4. Would you cry if your dog died? Yes, I would cry / No, but I’d feel sad.

You use WOULD HAVE + PAST PARTICIPLE to express an opinion about a pastsituation. In this case, it’s customary to ask using the pronoun “YOU” and answer with the pronoun “I”.
