Grammar: second Conditional

Remember! Use the second conditional to talk about unlikely or imagined situations in the present/future. Form: if + Past Simple, would + infinitive. If I were a president, I would build many schools. The if-clause can come first or second. I would set up a company if I had enough money. We use first conditional to talk about possible situations in the future. If the weather is fine we will have a picnic. When we are less certain, we can use might instead of would. If I won the competition, I might be famous. (see the Grammar reference)

Complete the following conditional sentences by putting the verbs into the correct form.

· If we (have) had a yacht, we (sail) would sail the seven seas.

· If he (have) ______ more time, he (learn) _______ karate.

· If they (tell) _________ their father, he (be) _______ very angry.
