Kondicionalne rečenice Su složene rečenice koje koristimo da bi govorili o situacijama koje su moguće u sadašnjosti ili budućnosti (Tip 1), o zamišljenim situacijama u sadašnjosti ili budućnosti (Tip2) ili o zamišljenim situacijama u prošlosti (Tip 3). Sastoje se iz dve proste rečenice od kojih jedna izražava uslov, a druga rezultat.

Conditional Type 1 If + present simple / will + inf. Lisa has lost her watch. Sue tells her: “If I find it, I’ll let you know.” If rečenica uvek izražava uslov (“ako ga nađem”), a druga rezultat (“javiću ti”). Tip 1 izražava situaciju koja je realna, moguća u sadašnjosti ili budućnosti. Na srpski se prevodi kao: Ako+ prezent / futur Ako ga nađem, javiću ti.

Present simple for the future You'll be tired tomorrow if you stay up late. Tell me when the water boils. I won't do anything unless you agree. Write the name down in case you forget it. We use the present simple for the future after linking words such as if, when, unless and in case. If – something might happen When – something will happen We use if (not when) for something impossible or imaginary. If I were you, I'd refuse.

If and unless Unless znači isto što i if...not I can’t see if I don’t wear glasses. = I can’t see unless I wear glasses.

If or when? ? (I may see Tom tonight.) If I see Tom, I'll tell him the news. ? (Melanie is coming soon.)
