something that is conditional will only happen if 
something else happens.
A conditional clause usually begins with 'if' and says what must 
happen or exist in order for the information in the main part of 
the sentence to be true
Often called the "unreal" conditional because it is used for 
unreal impossible or improbable situations. 
This conditional provides an imaginary result for a given 
situation. It is very unlikely that the condition will be fulfilled.
Conditional Sentences Type 2 refer to an action in the present that could 
happen if the present situation were different. 
I don't really expect the situation to change because it is very unlikely. 
If you WERE the president of your 
country, what would you do?
 This is the grammar structure for Unreal Conditionals 
WOULD BASE VERB 
 Examples: 
IF SIMPLE 
PAST, 
-If I were a politician, I would earn a lot of money 
-if I were an English teacher, I would teach English for free 
-if I were rich, I would stop working for the rest of my life
 In conditional type 2, we usually use in the if clause "were" instead of "was" 
even if the pronoun is I, he, she or it. 
NOTE "was" is also a possible form. 
Examples: If I was a rich boy, why am I so poor? 
If I was a happy boy, why am I so angry?
