Conditional sentences are made by combining an if-clause with an independent clause. 1. If you read the assignment, you will understand class better. 2. You will understand class better if you read the assignment.
General Truth or Future Time: The verb in the if-clause is in the simple present tense for sentences about general truth or about future time. 1. If you take Spanish next semester, Jose will help you practice the vocabulary. 2. Maria will help you with the grammar if you take Spanish next semester.
Past Time: The verb in the if-clause is in the simple past tense for sentences about past time conditions. 1. If her friends studied in the library, she did, too. 2. She studied in the library if her friends went with her.
Word Order: The if-clause often comes at the beginning of a sentence so that the condition is given first. But, the if-clause can come at the end of a sentence. See both versions in the examples.
