Conditional sentence
Conditonal Sentence means Sentences
that express our wish in the future and past. The differences between our wish
in future and past is not about the time but it's about our wish it self.
If we
have a wish and we hope that our wish will happen someday or maybe today so we
can express our wish in simple present and future tense.
But, if we have a wish that we
express it in the past and it actually didn't happen, so we use simple past,
past perfect, past future, and past perfect future.Conditional Sentences is
also called If Clause.
