1. ZERO CONDITIONAL
(if clause)
In this class, the student will be able to practice the zero conditional, which is used to
talk about facts or things that are general truths and their effects.
En esta clase, el estudiante estará en la capacidad de practicar el Condicional Zero, el mismo que es
utilizado para hablar acerca de hechos o cosas que son verdades generales y sus efectos.
2. You are going to review conditions that occur in our context
and that had occurred before, and the result is always the
same.
You already know facts, like habits, for
example:
If you do not sleep well, you feel tired,
What about your context:
If people use aerosols, they pollute the air.
3. To form the Zero Conditional, you have to mention a real
condition and a result that always happens:
If Clause
If Condition
Present Simple
Main Clause
Result
Present Simple
A real condition refers to:
General Truths
Natural Laws
Scientific Facts
Habits
Daily Routines
Rules
4. The Zero conditional uses IF or WHEN and must be followed by two
sentences in simple present in which one of them will be the CAUSE
and the other, the CONSEQUENCE.
7. Be careful using the zero
conditional. It should only be
used for situations or thing
that are always truth or
always happen. Make sure
you do not use the words
”will”, ”may”, ”should” or
similar words in this
conditional
