POSSIBILITIES / CONDITIONALS

Vamos estudar um pouco sobre o IF. O IF no inglês é uma clause, ou seja, é usado
quando queremos dizer que algo poderia ter sido ou acontecido SE outra coisa não
tivesse acontecido antes. Há 4 maneiras de classificação para o IF.

1. ZERO CONDITIONAL
Fatos que ocorrem com frequência e são simples. São usados com o simple
present, ou seja, frases normais.

Ex: If I study a lot, I get tired. (Se eu estudo muito, fico cansado.)

If you need help, talk to the teacher. (Se você precisa de ajuda, fale com o
professor.)

2. FIRST CONDITIONAL
Quando usamos o if para indicar possibilidades ou ações futuras prováveis.

Ex: If you buy one of these books now, I will get a good price for you. (Se você
comprar um desses livros agora, eu conseguirei um bom preço para você.)

If I go to London, I will buy an English guidebook. (Se eu for a Londres, eu


comprarei um guia de inglês.)

3. SECOND CONDITIONAL
Quando usamos o if para indicar situações pouco prováveis ou até irreais, no futuro.

Ex: If I had lots of money, I could buy a big house. (Se eu tivesse muito dinheiro,
eu poderia comprar uma casa grande.)

If I lived in Brazil, I would be happy. (Se eu morasse no Brasil, eu seria feliz.)

4. THIRD CONDITIONAL
Quando usamos o if para indicar situações que não aconteceram no passado,
também pode expressar arrependimento.

Ex: If we had saved some money, we would have bought a new car. (Se nós
tivéssemos economizado dinheiro, nós teríamos comprado um carro novo.)

If she had come on saturday, I would have seen her. (Se ela tivesse vindo no
sábado, eu a teria visto.)
