CONDITIONALS

Cel: przypomnienie użycia i struktury trybu 0 i 1

FIRST CONDITIONAL

ZERO CONDITIONAL

- we talk about things that always happen in the same way If I am not prepared, I get a bad mark. - we talk about rules, facts (e.g. biological, chemical, physical) If you heat ice, it melts. REMEMBER! In zero conditional If = every time !

- we do not talk about situations that happen every single time If the weather is fine tomorrow, we will swim in a lake. (it does not happen everyday/ it is probable future) - we talk about a situation which will have a possible consequence in the future If I do not study this evening, I will not pass the exam. REMEMBER! When there is an action there is also a reaction: If you hurt me, I will hurt you too.

• Instead of IF you may use: unless (if not: chyba, że/jeśli nie ) or provided (on this condition: pod warunkiem, że) - you mustn’t use any negative words after unless/provided e.g. Provided you pay for the tikets, I will fly to London with you.

!!! Don't use will after IF !!!
