Chapter 14: Conditional Sentences
Conditional Sentences woh sentences hote hain jismein **do clauses (hisse)** hote hain:
- If-Clause (Condition): Shart (Agar aisa hota...).
- Main Clause (Result): Nateeja (Toh yeh **hoga/hua**).
Yeh char (4) mukhya types ke hote hain:
1. Zero Conditional (Universal Truth/Fact) 💯
Yeh woh shartein hain jinka result hamesha **100% sach** hota hai (scientific fact, ya general truth).
| Structure (Hinglish) | If-Clause (Condition) | Main Clause (Result) | Example (English) |
|---|---|---|---|
| If + Simple Present, Simple Present | Agar tum paani **garam karte ho**, | toh woh **ubalta hai**. | If you **heat** water, it **boils**. |
| Use Case | Hinglish Example |
|---|---|
| Facts aur Aadatein. | Jab main der se **uthta hoon**, main bus **miss karta hoon**. |
2. First Conditional (Real/Likely Future) 🗓️
Yeh woh shartein hain jinka future mein pura hona **possible hai** (likely to happen).
| Structure (Hinglish) | If-Clause (Condition) | Main Clause (Result) | Example (English) |
|---|---|---|---|
| If + Simple Present, Simple Future (will + V1) | Agar tum mehnat **karoge**, | toh tum **pass ho jaoge**. | If you **study** hard, you **will pass**. |
| Use Case | Hinglish Example |
|---|---|
| Plans aur Possible Future ke liye. | Agar **baarish hoti hai**, toh hum **ghar par rahenge**. |
3. Second Conditional (Unreal Present/Future) ðŸ’
Yeh woh shartein hain jo abhi (present) ya future mein **possible nahi hain**, ya **impossible lagti hain** (imaginary situation).
| Structure (Hinglish) | If-Clause (Condition) | Main Clause (Result) | Example (English) |
|---|---|---|---|
| If + Simple Past, Would + V1 | Agar main rich **hota**, | toh main car **kharidta**. | If I **were** rich, I **would buy** a car. |
Note:
**'I/He/She'** ke saath bhi **'were'** zyada correct mana jaata hai Second Conditional mein (e.g., If I **were** rich).
| Use Case | Hinglish Example |
|---|---|
| Hypothetical situations aur Wishes. | Agar main uska number **jaanta**, toh main **call karta**. (Lekin main uska number **nahi jaanta**.) |
4. Third Conditional (Unreal Past/Regret) 😔
Yeh woh shartein hain jo **past mein possible thi**, par **ab time nikal chuka** hai (regret ya aalochana).
| Structure (Hinglish) | If-Clause (Condition) | Main Clause (Result) | Example (English) |
|---|---|---|---|
| If + Past Perfect, Would have + V3 | Agar tumne call **kiya hota**, | toh main **aa gaya hota**. | If you **had called**, I **would have come**. |
| Use Case | Hinglish Example |
|---|---|
| Past ki galti ya lost opportunities par afsos. | Agar woh **jaldi nikle hote**, toh unki train **miss nahi hoti**. |
🔑 Chapter 14 Takeaway
Conditional Sentences mein **Tenses ka combination** sabse zaroori hai. **If-Clause** mein kabhi bhi 'will' use nahi hota. **Second Conditional (would + V1)** aur **Third Conditional (would have + V3)** aapki English ko sabse zyada **advance** banate hain. In formulas ko rat lo! 😉
