3. Level 7 – Class 3
Beyoncé - If I were a boy (https://youtu.be/SHsra2h7rVk)
• How could you link this topic with this song?
I think that due to the gender of the singer and the title of the song, it
completely links with the study's topic because a woman cannot be
a man, which is an imaginary condition and exactly describes the
study's topic that is Present Unreal Conditional.
• What can you say about the accent?
For me, it’s American English accent by the pronunciation in this case
the word “wanted” because most of the time, Americans drop the T
in this word.
• What is peculiar in second conditional sentences?
The connector word “if”.
• What is that separate the first sentence and second sentence in
second conditional?
Depend, if the sentence begins with If clause, it’s separates by the
punctuation mark “comma” but it begins with result clause it’s
separates by “if”-
