​

Answer 1

Answer:

yes it is conditional clauses only

Answer 2

A main clause plus a conditional clause make up a conditional sentence (sometimes called an if-clause). If or unless is frequently the first word in a conditional sentence. The main clause might appear before or after the conditional clause.

Conditional sentences convey one event as a condition of another, such as "If it rains, the picnic will be cancelled." They're termed so because the sentence's main clause's impact is conditional on the dependent clause.

Examples are:

1. We’ll be late if we don’t leave now.
2. We’ll be late unless we leave now.

The given sentence, " If you should be late once again,you will lose your job.". is a Type 2 conditional clause.

The main clause uses would, could, or might + the base form of a main verb. The if-clause uses the past simple tense or the past subjunctive.
