Kebetulan gara gara ujian Bahasa Inggris di SMA NEGERI 8 TANGERANG, i just want to remind about Conditional tenses. Tapi ini hanya rumus biasa aja, gak ada yang mixed type. Let's start !!

Conditional Sentence Type I

Kalimat conditional disebut juga dengan kalimat pengandaian. Contoh di bawah ini:

• If I have a lot of money, I will go to America.

kalimat ini merupakan syarat untuk terjadinya sesuatu yaitu : I will go to America. (main clause). Jadi saya akan pergi ke Amerika jika saya mempunyai banyak uang.

Rumus conditional sentence type 1

If +simple present tense, Simple future tense

Simple future tense + if + simple present tense

NOTE: jangan lupa memasukan , (comma) jika ingin meletakkan subordinate clause terlebih dahulu. Tidak perlu meletakkan koma jika main clause anda masukan terlebih dahulu.

• If she has my address, she will send the invitation to me.
• They will buy a car if they have money.
• You will be late if you sleep late.
• He will not come if you are angry with him.

Conditional Sentence Type II

Rumusnya sebagai berikut:

If   +  Simple past tense  +  ,  +  Past future tense

Past future tense + if + simple past tense

Contoh:

• If I found her address, I would send her an invitation.
• I would send her an invitation if I found her address.
• If I had a lot of money, I wouldn’t stay here.
• If I were you, I would not do this.

Contoh lain:

If John had the money, he would buy a Ferrari.

Saya kenal John. Dia tidak punya banyak uang (ini fakta yang ada). Akan tetapi dia sangat suka denga mobil ferari dan sangat ingin membelinya. Akan tetapi ini hanya mimpi John belaka karena tidak mungkin dia membeli ferari karena dia tidak punya uang.

Dari penjelasan ini sangat jelas perbedaan conditional sentence type I dan II. Jadi type dua adalah kalimat pengandaian yang tidak mungkin terjadi, sedangkan type I bisa saja terjadi.

Conditional Sentence type III

Rumus conditional type III

If  + Past perfect + , + Past future perfect tense

Past future perfect tense + if + past perfect

Contoh:

• If I had found her address, I would have sent her an invitation.
• I would have sent her an invitation if I had found her address.
• If I hadn’t studied, I wouldn’t have passed my exams.
• If John had had the money, he would have bought a Ferrari.  

That's all. Thank you :)
