Tema 8 B (GRAMMAR)

If + present, will + infinitive (first conditional)

•      Use if + present to talk about the possible situation and will/ won’t + verb to talk about the consequence.

If I miss the last bus. I’ll get a taxi.

If you tell her the truth, she won’t believe you.

What will you do if he doesn’t call you?

•            The if- clause can come first or second. If the if clause comes first, we usually put a comma before the next clause.

If you don’t go, she won’t be very pleased.

She won’t be very pleased if you don’t go.

•          You can also use the imperative or can+ infinitive instead of will+ infinitive in the order clause

If you miss the last, get a taxi.
