Explanation:
- If clause is used to talk about a condition – something that should take place first so that something else can take place. There 3 types of if -conditional sentences
- Type 1 - condition possible to fulfill
- Type 2 - condition in theory possible to fulfill
- Type 3 - condition not possible to fulfill (too late) (as in the above case)
- In the above case the form
- Type 1 - Simple Present - will-future/(Modal+infinitive)
- Type 2 - Simple Past - would+infinitive
- Type 3 - Past Perfect - would+have+past participle
- Examples
- Type 1 - If I study, I will pass the exam.
- Type 2 - If I studied, I would pass the exam
- Type 3 - If I had studied, I would have passed the exam
- Type 1 is used to express a possibility in the future (It is not certain that it will happen, but it is possible). We use this type when talking about real and possible situations in the future.
- Where Type 2 is used to express dreams, impossible scenarios and unexpected occurrences. The condition laid down in the clause, in other words, is not true, but is currently imagined While the verb has been used in the past, when thinking about the present or current time we use form 2.
- The conditional form 3 refers to a previously impossible situation and its expected outcome in the past. Such words are often hypothetical and impossible, because the situation or its result is now too late. Regrets of conditional sentences of form 3 are always inferred. The truth is the inverse of what the expression describes or contradicts it. The time is the past and the case is hypothetical in the conditional sentences of form 3.
