      Conditional Zero: If I heat ice, it melts.

      This conditional sentence expresses a scientific fact. That is, If the condition meets, the result will always be the same.

      Interesting lesson on conditionals Ronnie.

      All my best.

      Regino

    Hi Ronnie, in your lesson about “need” and “want” you are saying a sentence like that: “If we do not have water, we WILL die”. Why did you use the modal in this sentence. That we die without water is a scientific fact, ist’t it?

    ela1

    Good lesson

    kotoz

You are great,but I would like to learn and understand more about all four conditionals!So,please-hurry up with two other lessons :))))…thanx,in advanced!

sarrra

I got 5 score out of 5. by the way, Conditionals : If, When, as soon as,by the Time, unless,, are also same as Zero, First Conditinal ?
and If + When, we use as follows as well.
ex : I do not know if this Reseach will bear fruit.
we can use modal in this case, If + S + modal + Verb….?? !!!
What is difference between them ?

masa1807

    We can change the pattern of the conditional. But you can’t put If + modal in the same part of the sentence!
    Sub + base if + sub + modal + base…. OR If + sub + base, sub + modal + base.
    I am happy if he can come. If he comes, I will be happy!

    Ronnie

      Thanks a lot. one day I want to try TOEIC Test. Have a nice Weekend. Masa

      masa1807

      You are great,but I would like to learn and understand more about how to use away, up, down, out, over. like grow (up) find (out), slow (down) far (away) come (over). and a few more. and thanks for your videos.

      alexander camois

      Hi Ronnie,

      I need your advice regarding the following:
      when should i say “There is…” and when sould i say – “There are…”
      Thankd in advance.

      limorgo

      thank you a lot my teacher “Ronnie”. :)

      Abdelmounaim

      question 5 how answer is i will stay at home!!

      Omaramged

    ‘if this Research will bear fruit’ was an adverb clause that modified the verb ‘know’.

    Everydaye

Well, I thinks is an Interesting Lesson…I Didn’t know much about Conditional..So Let’s Practice.

kenmeiner

ninaricci23

Alvaro

if I watch EngVid daily, I will fall in love with Ronnie or Emma. pretty lesson ROnnie, have a good day.

Efrain

    Is you’re sentence really correct??? I’m not sure. In fact, BECAUSE I watch EngVid, I MUST fall in love… it’s 100% true, it’s a scientific’s fact. So, I think the correct sentence is :
    If I watch EngVid daily, I fall in love with Ronnie.

    chupito

    Don’t forget James :)

    engVid

      Yeah, James is COOL!

      Shadow

Hi Ronnie i just want to ask you one question out of the topic, which English would you like the most American or British? ’cause i’ve realized you pronounce many words like British which i love, cause as far as im concerned British English is the best :)

vladimir20

    I think British English has too many rules. American English is easier.

    Ronnie

Thank you very much for teaching.

ariunbolor

mursaleen45

i scored 5 out 5 therefore i understand zero and firt condition very well

salleh19

Hi Ronnie, I have always troubles with the conditions, but after this class it becomes very easy!
by the way which are the two others conditionals?
also you have teach us zero and first condition, there exist second or third condition?
thank you again teacher Ronnie
(you have promised to answer!!)

lounis88lao

    Second conditional = unreal situations in the past or future. If + sub + past tense, sub + would + base verb.
    If I had a baby, I would eat it.
    Third conditional = unreal PAST situations. If + sub + had + p.p, sub + would have + p.p.
    If I had eaten that baby, I would have gone to jail.

    Ronnie

      I feel like I’m mastering conditional now! thanks to you teacher Ronnie

      lounis88lao

thank you ronnie:)

yjie tan

Modals are helping verbs? Answer me my dear Ma’am.

Gajendra Andrew

    Yes, they are.

    Ronnie

Hii Ronnie,
I would like to congratulate you for making helpful,informative video lesson for us to help improve our language skills.I always catch new lessons and watch them attentively to get a clear conception of it.Furthermore, I have also developed a habit of reading newspaper everyday to stay connected with the world.When I go through an article in the newspaper, I also concentrate in gathering new words as well as expanding my vocabulary.I not only focus on words, but also look at forming sentences in many different ways.Of late, I am facing some problems relating to formation of adjectives from an action word.I have read a lot of sentences and found that adjectives are actually the third form(past participle form)of a verb .Even though I have this conception which I am not sure of, I heartily request you to make a lesson explaining this aspect of English grammar clearly.This is the utmost request of mine to you.I honestly admit that I get confused with adjectives.I have also written down two sentences below including their explanation based on my knowledge.I request you to identify the errors in them and correct the same too helping me find out my mistakes.
The first sentence reads as:
Ten persons were killed after being struck by lighting.
Expln:The first part of the sentence is in passive voice of simple past tense. It says lightinh killed ten persons.The second part expresses that lighting first struck them before taking their lives.In the second part,the present participle form of the stative verb “to be” has been used as well as an action word following “being” is in its third form.
The same information could easily be given by using past perfect tense,thereby,making the first action in perfect sense and second action in simple past tense.In that case, the original sentence would turn into the following one:
1.Lighting had struck ten persons before it killed them.
2.Lighting killed ten persons after it had struck them.
The above two sentences are in active voice.
1.Ten persons were killed after they had been struck by lighting.
Another sentence could be formed to express the same meaning like as follows:
Having been struck by lighting(passive usage),ten persons were killed(passive usage).
Another way to deliver the same meaning by bringing the second part at the beggining and sending the first part at the end is:
After being struck by lighting,ten persons were killed.
I hope you would check my sentences and correct them too.I also wish you to evaluate my writing skills after going through this short comment.Looking forward to receiving a fast reply

sona sharma

    That is not a “short comment”.
    Your sentences are correct! Great work! You understand very well!

Hello dear Ronnie.
GOOD1!

fatiima8

Hi, Ronnie! Great lesson as usual!))) Well done!
I have but one question: what about mixed conditional? Among all white spots in my “English grammar profile” this one is probably one of the biggest… Could you explain to me what mixed conditionals are, whether they’re used in spoken English and what their grammar pattern is.
Oh, and one more=) What if I’m 100% sure of something but it’s not a scientific fact? For instance: If I come home late, I don’t do my homework. Is it ok?
Thank you in advance!;) Looking forward for more exciting lessons of yours)

    Ronnie

Please put a video about Second conditional I will be very grateful

kHALID

thanks for the lesson

andy

Assume the tongue tip doesn’t touch the lower teeth back in producing an “[i]” .

Does the tongue tip touch the lower teeth back when we say “tea[ti]” ?

Wally Wang

    Your tongue starts behind the upper teeth and stops just below (middle of your mouth)!

    Ronnie

Hi Ronnie, first I have to say your lessons are amazing and funny..thank you for your help.

I have one suggestion, I didn’t see here some lesson about the difference between EITHER AND NEITHER.

so, if it is possible…please bring to us some explanation.

Tks..

flavpsilva

    There is already a lesson by Alex on Either and Neither. Just search on the site!

    Ronnie

      Hi Ronnie, it’s true…thanks.

      flavpsilva

ronnie thanks for your all lessons… they’re very useful.. ı have a problem about speaking… ı’m from turkey and we’re learning brtish eng.. as you know that brtsh eng. is too hard to catch on easly… so ı am suffering from lack of speaking fluently.. can u give me an advice about what ı should do?

faik

    Just try to speak! You can also watch American movies/tv shows to help you! Also, going to an English speaking country will help you SO much!

    Ronnie

Thank you so much, Ronnie. I am a Spanish speaker, but I teach English in Costa Rica. This lesson has clear some doubts I had!!!!!!!!

Leticia Wille

I remember first lesson in engvid was your lesson you made me smile from depth heart ,thank you ,of course with all respect to you

Leyla

Thank you so much, Monika from Hungary.

Monika

Ronnie I have an interview in an English conversation course to know in which level would I be, so can you just give me any tips to do well in the exam, usually the exam is speaking with some and writing a composition

mostafa ghanem

    When you are asked a question and you do not understand, just ask the person to clarify the question. A lot of students make mistakes because they do not answer the question correctly.
    Don’t be afraid to make a mistake! Even if you do, just try to correct it!
    When you have finished the writing portion, if you have time, check your work!
    Good luck!

    Ronnie

mem you are fabulous teacher. i like your teaching.

aliakbar64

what is difference between no and not??

aliakbar64

    NO + noun.
    Not + adjective/adverb/verb.

    Ronnie

Hi Ronnie! I’m a little bit confused((( Is it correct? “When we’ll have completed the school we’ll enter the University” Or I have to use present simple tense in the first part of the sentence? Thanks in advance!

kivolya

    When we have completed school, we will enter University.

    Ronnie

Hi ronnie
I’ll study in USA next month and my level right now is intermediate
with your experiences do you think that six month will be enough to get 90 in TOEFL or 6.5 in IELTS ?
and what do you think is easier ?

thesalmanlaw

    I have no idea…everyone learns at a different rate. I am sure if you study hard and try your best you WILL pass! Good luck!

    Ronnie

Hi, Ronnie. I would like to make a small correction. We do NOT use the base form in the zero conditional. We use the Simple Present form of the verb in the zero conditional. Your statement that it is a base verb is wrong, as the base form does not accept any tenses, but the verb had an “s” in your sentence in the zero conditional. So, it is better to say that the verbs are in the Present Simple form in the zero conditional.Thanks.

anon

hi ronnie how r u?i wanna to know how to use past and present perfect?

abdulelah

Amazing! you are really helped me in many lessons .. Thank you so much

zulandri

Hi Ronnie,
I am back again with some confusing sentences.I have written them below and I want you to help me identify the parts of speech of each word which I have CAPITALIZED in the sentences.
1.The concept is ILLUSTRATED/DEMONSTRATED/DESCRIBED.
2.Each use is EXAMINED.
3.It is MENTIONED/INCLUDED/DECLARED.
4.It is SHOWN/GIVEN.
I guess all of the capitalized(I have used this word as an adjective because the verb form is “to capitalize”, and according to the rule, I can turn it to an adjective by adding “ed” at the end.If my cocept is incorrect, I request you to clarify me the actual concept.) words must be adjectives.In this context, they can’t be verbs.If they are verbs,the sentences become meaningless because they sentences do not indicate a process carried out to reach to a solution.
I want you to check my understanding.
Looking forward to getting a positive response.

sona sharma

Hi Ronnie,
You Rock……….. I wish, I had teachers like you,when i was a young student. I wanted to know that English spoken by native speakers is fraught with slangs, informal words, and incorrect usages at times( eg. Based on your behavior last night, I am upset with you).
How to address these problems when we speak to the natives of English Speaking countries…..
Everything that comes out of a cow is not milk, isn’t it???????

Teacher Ronnie thank you for you lessons. I would like to learn how to construct a complete sentence. I have a hard time writing verb sentence agreement and organizing a paragraphs. Well I have a lot difficulties in English because is not my native language. I hope you can teach me writing skills.

Teresa

Dear Ronni, thanks a lot for you lesson,
I would like to know what is the difference between the base verb and the infinitive.

M. Johmani

    Infinitive = to + base verb.
    Base verb you have to add “s” with he/she/it.

    Ronnie

Thanks a lot teacher, you are the one!

Ronnie, I luv u!=D Thanks u so much! Ur SO cool!!^___^

Hi,Ronnie I wanna ask you that I’m unable to judge myself Am I really fleunt or not so is there any way by which I can understand that Am I really fleunt or need to learn more and prctiice more .Thanks for such beautiful lectures

Muhammad Fahim

    I think that if you can talk to native speakers at the same pace that they do it would be a good indication of your fluency. However, it is hard to judge yourself!

    Ronnie

thanks alot ! i love you

Thanks Ronnie. I really enjoy your classes.

HI Ms.Ronnie
“Had I known about your illness,I would
have written before.”
I don`t feel comfotable with the structure of this sentence.
Is any thing wrong with the first clause? in another way,”Had I known” is correct?,or I should say,”If I had known about…” OF COURSE I WOULD NEVER WISH THAT TO YOU.BUT I READ THIS SENTENCE AS IT IS,I WISH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAPPY&HEALTHY LIFE.

Atef

    We do indeed say “Had I known…… so your sentence is correct.
    You can also use “if” at the beginning of the sentence! If I had known…..

    Ronnie

Hi Ronnie first of all thanks for teach us English the way you do, May God bless you always . Ronnie I got a question related to the FIRST CONDITIONAL : Can we use the modals MUST, HAVE TO, HAVE GOT TO (GOTTA) , I ask you because some teachers said First Conditional is the REAL FUTURE CONDITIONAL (I guees because most of the time use WILL) to give you some examples I found the following conditionals (by the sitcom 2&12 men):
1.- If you’re not gonna come, you GOTTA tell Jake yourself.
2.- If you want to play in this league, you HAVE TO make a few changes.
3.- if you want to stay in that house, then I HAVE TO live here to save money.
4.- If She’s ever in a coma, you’re the one who HAS TO decide to pull the plug.
So it is usually use the modals MUST, HAVE TO, HAVE GOT TO when we make the First Conditional? and this modals (modals of necessity and obligation) work with a “future” meaning in the Conditional clause ?. thanks

rluis

    You are 100% correct! That is fantastic that you were able to spot these in tv shows!
    First conditional is used when you THINK/BELIEVE something will happen (but there is a chance that it may not happen)! Keep up the great work!

    Ronnie

If you watch Ronnie’s lesson, you won’t forget zero and first conditionals. (This is first conditional grammatically but zero conditional logically. :)
Thank you Ronnie!

memomelo

Now, i know the use of modal and conditionals grammar. Thank you so much to your video.

Dheeraj

Hi Ronnie, the lesson was very productive, but I have a little request – do you may use more examples in lessons it really help to understand more deeper.

“0 – If you drive many years, you improve your drive skills

0 – If you fly to Africa, you get few of vaccinations

1 – When I go home after work, I will rest for some time

1 – If you drink a lot of water in the summer, you might not get sunstroke”

Are this sentences correct?

Thanks a lot, Shirly

shirly

Ronni Iam really confused with an answer to a previous question that can and would r modals why don`t we use them and your answer was that we can use can but we can not use would because would is past model and my question is could is past model too and u told that we use it !!! any explanation please ?????

rowaida

ohh ronni
I want something else can u tell me if there is anything wrong in my two comments like grammar points or spelling
thanks alot ronni

rowaida

lalo1614

hi Ronnie thanks for your teach English your pronunciation is very very nice .
can i talk with you direct by mobile phone or connect by internet online?

atiqullah

Hi Ronnie! It was really useful!
I still have a question.
For first conditional, after the modal, do we have to add the “s” when the subject is “he”, “she” or “it”?
For instance:
If it rains, he could uses an unmbrella.
or
If it rains, he could use an unmbrella.
I think the second one is the correct but it is my eternal doubt :)

Thanks a lot again!!

Vir

THANK YOU RONNI, I LOVE YOU ENGLISH CLASS, YOU ARE VERY FUNNY, I LOVE YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU!!!

Fox

and of course thanks great lesson

Fox

please I need help with the conditional sentences. thanks

rocio silva

Thank you, Ronnie. I learned about Zero Conditional from your lesson. I also learned that not only “will” can be in First Conditional. Will means future. The action will happen in the future. What about might and may? What’s the difference between the sentences bellow?

If you invite me to the party, I may come there.
If you invite me to the party, I might come there.
If you invite me to the party, I could come there.

Now, look here please.
I could go to park, if it stopped raining.
This is the Second Condition, and I use modal verb “could”.

yankhonskiy

hi misses ronnie thank you for the lessons i like your lessons alot , if they was teachers like u in my university we will understand fast , i want ask you about conditional with modals , i have it in re sit exam , we study modals which are in conditional , so i want ask you if we can put the modals in the other conditional second or third or just in the first conditional ? and thank u alot

marwa

    Second conditional = unreal situations in the past or future. If + sub + past tense, sub + would + base verb.
    If I had a baby, I would eat it. Would is a modal!
    Third conditional = unreal PAST situations. If + sub + had + p.p, sub + would have + p.p.
    If I had eaten that baby, I would have gone to jail. Would is a modal!

    Ronnie

May, might = 60% sure.
Could =40% sure.
You can use ANY modal in first conditional!

Ronnie

thank you so much for that , that help me alot to understand the lessons , thanks you again ms Ronnie

marwa

Thank you very much.Your lesson is very funny.Best Regards-Ronnie.

Zibi-Poland

Hi Ronnie! I like your lessons. I’ve got something to ask from you. Could you explain would’s use? What is the difference between would and should? Ex: That would be a book. What does this sentence mean? I’m looking forward to hearing you. Thanks.

Paratishpa777

Hi Ronnie!
Firstly, I really like your lesson!
But I´ve a question for you: can I also use “would” as a modal?
Greetings, Gyndastyle. :D

Nikola

To the very end of the video at 6:45 you said: “sub + modal + base verb” –> I think there should not be a “base vert” but infinitive –> he/she/it does not get “s” at the end of a verb.

7thomas7

hello i’m confused about the type of conditional in this sentence
If you don’t stop making noise i turn off the tv or I’ll turn off the tv ?? !!

joujou

    Hi! Both are correct.The main sentence can be present or future time. The requirement is that the conditional sentence (begin with “if”)to be in the present tense.

    emilian

hi ronnie
I have a Q…
what about if+PRESENT simple+ imperative.
does it have the same meaning with first conditional.
thnx in advance.

reda

Isnt first conditional If+sub+base verb….,sub. + will ( future tense??

Laura

Hi! I didn’t learn about zero or first conditional. I know that, if the main sentence is in present, future or imperative, then, the requirement is that the conditional sentence (begin with “if”) to be in the present tense.

emilian

Hi, teacher Ronnie first of I want thank your great teaching ,second I have alittle confusion U said that we cant use WOULD but we can use COULD inspite of both of them are past may I know the difference please thank you very much indeed.

fared

Hi teacher Ronnie first i would like to thank you for your great effort, second I have a little confusion about U said that we can use COULD but we cant use WOULD inspite of both are past , correct me if wrong thank U cery much indeed.

abosajdah

About zero conditionals…I have books around me and I cannot find answers…different info in each of them. About tenses in zero conditional: Book No 1 – you can use present csimple, continuous or present perfect. Book No 2 – you can use just simple present in both clauses 3 you can use present simple/continuous,perfect in if clause but in the result clause, there can only be the present simple or imperative. Where is the truth????

Vivita

Hi Ronnie, congratulations!!! Your classes are very nice! I love your lessons! You are many clearly!

great job Ronnie …
That is a fantastic explain
But I have question about conditional
Can I change the place for the sentences
like..
If you come my apartment, I will make dinner.
I will make dinner if you come my apartment.
And you side in your lesson
Zero for something 100 is true, and First for some thing might happen.
What about second and third..?

ali551jaffer

Hi Ronnie,
our English teacher told us, the Zero-Conditional is the “general truth”.
He used the same sentence in all 4 conditionals:
If I am thirsty, I have some beer. – (General truth).-
If I am thirsty, I’ll have some beer. –
If I was thirsty, I’d have some beer. –
If I had been thirsty, I’d have had some beer.
All students (most of them) understood in taht lesson the conditional.You are very good teacher, but our taecher is the best.

adrijana

a25alice

thanks Ronnie

mara0608

Ronnie, I’ve studied, about this grammar, in other website, and in this case (First conditional) I saw that the structure is: if + subject + PRESENT SIMPLE + FUTURE (will or going to), for example: “If it rains, we‘re going to stay home.” But I didn’t see, about the modal verbs like (may, might, could), and in your explanation, you did’t talk about GOING TO… Please, give one more explanation. Thanks…

Fauzi Al-Baihaqi

we can use conjunctions of time such as after, before and until as “if” but why? I know that we use “when” when the “condition” will definitely happen,as soon as to emphasize urgency and unless in place of “if not”but those that I named at the beginning I don’t know :/

Phola

Now I understood….

Vanessa Seixas

Hello! I have a difficulties with some sentence. It is: ‘If it’s any consolation, you had me convinced’ Why don’t we use ‘will’ or modal? Why is it Past Pefect in a subordinate clause? Is it zero conditonal? I didn’t catch it.

Hi ronnie! In the syntax that you have given for the first conditional, you included the modal “could” is it possible in the first conditional? since the first conditional talks about real possibilities in the present or future. Should it “can” not ” could”? Just wondering! Thanks!

Hi ronnie! In the syntax that you have given for the first conditional, you included the modal “could” is it possible in the first conditional? since the first conditional talks about real possibilities in the present or future. Should it be “can” not “could”? Just wondering! Thanks!

shianayelli

Since zero conditional talks about possibility but not certainty, why did you use “if” in the example ” If ice melts, it becomes water.” why not “when”? “When ice melts it becomes water.” since we use “When” for certainty, and it is certain that when the ice melts it becomes water. I think it is better to say, ” If you put heat on ice, it becomes water.” I am not sure if you put heat on the ice , but if you do surely it melts. In the if clause, I am not sure if you put heat on the ice but it is possible that you will do it, and if you do it, surely it becomes water. Thanks! I am just sharing my idea =)

Hi everybody, I have a doubt about this sentence:

“Every weekend , if the weather is nice , I (spend /will spend) time outside with my children”
I really don´t know if I should use the zero or the first conditional, because I am talking about a habit I would choose zero conditional, however in the video Ronnie eexplain that zero is always used for scientific facts. Thanks

Austrelho Matedes

Can I say, “If I’m rich, l will buy a car” as an action that leads to another. Or I must use type 2. Thanks in advance.

abofarrag

Hi, I am happy I found this page, I have a question I found in one book this:” A distinction between can and could is observed in conditionals. Could is
used when the conditions are not met.
if Louisa is coming, she can look after the children for a while.
if Helen had more money, she could buy a computer.”
so I see that in second example there is a conditional sentence and it is used could there, i cant understand do we use could in conditionals or not?

Thank you Ronnie!

Chan M.

Great lesson.
For universal facts, Zero conditional and for probable situations, use First conditional. Thumbs up!
1. If it rains, the floor becomes slippery.
2. If we add salt to water, it boils faster.
3. When you smile, the brain generates melatonin.
4. When you run fast, you become out of breath.
5. If you drop a pebble from some height, the pebble drops down.

1. If you cheat on someone, someone else will cheat on you.
2. If you work hard, you can pass.
3. If you like Ronni, you will watch her videos.
4. When you drive fast, you can/may/will hit yourself with another car.
5. If you’re all right, you may come to the party.

gatevisa64

Hi Master
I have a question that its answer is really important to me.
The question is about conditional sentences.
Could you tell me what kind of conditional is this sentence?
If they arrived any later, he would have died.
Zero, First, Second or Third. Which one is that? and Why?
I would be really appreciate.

Yosef.Rezaei93@gmail.com

Great, thanks a lot.

Nusalov

Thank you ronnie
I do like you so much

slahaldien

Hello Ronnie! I would like you comfirme if I am right or not, please:
1. in the if part, could I use any present tense?
simple, continues, perfect?
and in the second part of the sentence, could I use any future form?
modals, future simple, continues, future perfect?

2. In English after if, never put a future tense?

Thank you so much!

mauroldanr

But mam in the beginning of the video,you told us that the ‘Conditionals’always start with ‘If’ and When’.Then in the example of the ‘zero conditional’ u said that we can change the two sentences and say,’It becomes water,if ice melts’.But then the conditional is starting with it.So won’t it be wrong?

S.miral

Great! Thanks for teaching us so well!
If I study English with you, I might polish my English so much!
Take care

I thank you for the lesson , Ronnie

achalamama

Hi, could you explain me why we use zero conditional in this cases:

1) If you need help, come to me”. Why not “will come to me”? Is it zero conditional?

2) If I hadn’t been rude to her, she wouldn’t be upset now”. Why not “would not have been”? Mixed conditionals?

3) If you have finished your work, we can have a rest. Which conditional it is? Mixed again?

4) If he hadn’t been acting so foolishly, he wouldn’t have been punished. Why we use Past Perfect Continious after If? Mixed again? In this case we can’t say “hadn’t been acted”? Why?

5) If he had found a job, he wouldn’t ask for money now. Why “wouldn’t ask”? Mixed?

6) If I had got up earlier, I wouldn’t be late now.Why “wouldn’t be”? Mixed?

7) If nobody paid the bill, the electricity will be cut off. It’s first conditionals about probable event, but why “paid” instead “pay”?

8) If he knew her, he would have spoken to her yesterday. Third conditional but why “knew”?

9) Do you have lessons with Unless instead If?

Oxana Mashevskaya

Perfect! Thank you so much!

Milenaljubicka

Ronnie,
I’m teaching Zero and First conditionals right now in my ESL class and watched your video to get some tips. However, maybe you wanted to keep the explanation simple, but the Pearson Focus on Grammar 3 textbook by Pearson that I’m using states that both Zero and First conditionals can use certain modals of possibility, advice, and necessity in the result clause. This negates the differentiation you made in your video. It also states that the result clause in Zero conditionals is always true and the result clause in First conditionals is certain when “will” is used (the result clause is less certain when modals are used). I like your simple definition, but my text doesn’t support explaining the differences this way. I’ll need to do more research to see if I can find an explanation that I can explain clearly and is supported by the textbook.
