They are typically made up of two clauses: the if-clause and the main clause. The if-clause states the condition, and the main clause states the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are four main types of conditional sentences:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>First conditional:<\/strong>&nbsp;This type of conditional sentence is used to express a possible result in the future.&nbsp;The if-clause is in the present tense,&nbsp;and the main clause is in the future tense.&nbsp;For example:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>If I study hard, I will pass the exam.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Second conditional:<\/strong>&nbsp;This type of conditional sentence is used to express a hypothetical result in the present.&nbsp;The if-clause is in the past tense,&nbsp;and the main clause is in the conditional tense.&nbsp;For example:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>If I had studied harder, I would have passed the exam.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Third conditional:<\/strong>&nbsp;This type of conditional sentence is used to express a hypothetical result in the past.&nbsp;The if-clause is in the pluperfect tense,&nbsp;and the main clause is in the conditional tense.&nbsp;For example:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>If I had studied harder, I would have passed the exam last year.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mixed conditional:<\/strong>&nbsp;This type of conditional sentence is used to express a hypothetical result in the past or future,&nbsp;but the speaker is not sure if the condition will be met.&nbsp;The if-clause is in one tense,&nbsp;and the main clause is in another tense.&nbsp;For example:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>If I had studied harder, I might have passed the exam.<br><br><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">Here are 50+ conditional sentences
