Thank you again from Spain
tnx from barraccamanna
thank you very much from Russia!
You are missing the very first conditional.
Cause and effect:
If I am hungry , I usually eat salad.
great lesson
thanks for postin
very clear.Thanks!
Actually this is not said. One would say; “When I’m hungry I eat salad.”
For an if clause one would have to say. “If I’m hungry, I’ll eat salad’ …
The rules of the game !
Thanks for your correction, Very useful!
not bad!
what about 0 conditionals, mixed conditionals, variations without if….this is too simplified. Is this really ‘advanced’ conditionals???
i agree
Indeed, too bad he doesn’t say anything about mixed conditionals, that’s where i always get in trouble
try watching BBC TV, seems to be a requisite that all rare / wrong forms are made publicly acceptable
I agree. And it doesn’t talk about the factual conditional in the past neither.

I disagree with the first example, Both does not deliver the same message. First one delivers an additional message that there is already a planning of picnic. Which is not delivered in the second line.
No, both examples indicate the same end result: there will be a picnic if it doesn’t rain.
BTW. check your tenses… both > does????
Strictly speaking, Udayanverma is right of course. It DOES make a difference whether you talk of A picnic or THE picnic.
I have to keep warning my Dutch pupils against the double-would-disease. 5:00
@Udayanverma lol
There is a picnic planned but if it rains (which is possible that it could,) the picnic will be canceled.
What do you not understand? It’s as easy as it gets.
If you read and re-read the first example, you will understand it.
