How to Use

2nd Conditional

By Ingrid

Second Conditional

The second conditional uses the past simple after if, then 'would' and the infinitive: If + past simple, ...would + infinitive (We can use 'were' instead of 'was' with 'I' and 'he/she/it'. This is mostly done in formal writing). It has two uses: 1. We can use it to talk about imaginary or hypothetical situations. For example: If I won the lottery, I would buy a trip around the world and then to Mars. (I probably won't win the lottery) She would speak English if she ever practised on the Web with native speakers. (She never does this, so this won't happen) If I had his number, I would call him. (I don't have his number now, so it's impossible for me to call him).
