CONDITIONAL TYPE 1

CONDITIONAL TYPE 1

By Luis Quiroz

WHAT IS THE FIRST CONDITIONAL?

Se usa para hablar de cosas que pueden suceder en un futuro. La diferencia con el 'zero conditional' es que este habla de verdades genéricas, mientras que el 'first conditional' habla de situaciones particulares.

Ejemplo:

​

Zero conditional: Animals die if they don't eat. (It's a general thruth)

First conditional: Animals will die if you don't feed them. (It's a particular situation)​
