Conditional 3

Word order: if + Past Perfect, Hauptsatz mit Conditional II

Example: If I had found her address, I would have sent her an invitation.

If the main proposition is in the beginning of the sentence, then the comma disapears.

Example: I would have sent her an invitation if I had found her address.

The conditional sentence can also stand in the negative form.

Example: If I hadn’t studied, I wouldn’t have passed my exams.

Use:You need this time, when you will say something about the past. The conditional 3 will be used, when a thing is unpossible because of the condition.

One thought on “Conditional 3

    I think the article is ok, but if I were you, at first, in the fist sentece, i´d explain what the conditional 3 even is, beause u started directly with the grammar.. :)
    I´d also choose one language (first you say “word order” and then after that “Hauptsatz” aso…)
    I´d also explain words like: proposition
    But all in all I like it because its short but understandable. :)))
