  6. Examples first conditional If it’s sunny, we go to the park. Paula be sad if Juan leaves. If you cook the supper, I wash the dishes. will will will

  7. THE SECOND CONDITONAL The second conditional (also called conditional type 2) is a structure used for talking about unreal situations in the present or in the future. *Note that this "simple past" form is slightly different from usual in the case of the verb BE. Whatever the subject, the verb form is "were", not "was": If I were rich, I'd buy a big house.

  8. The structure of a second conditional sentence 1) Like a first conditional, a second conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an "if" clause and a main clause:

  9. The structure of a second conditional sentence 2) If the "if" clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the "if" clause comes second, there is no need for a comma:

  12. USE OF PASSIVE VOICE Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not known, however, who or what is performing the action. Example: My bike was stolen. In the example above, the focus is on the fact that my bike was stolen. I do not know, however, who did it. Sometimes a statement in passive is more polite than active voice, as the following example shows: Example: A mistake was made. In this case, I focus on the fact that a mistake was made, but I do not blame anyone (e.g. You have made a mistake)

  13. FORM OF PASSIVE VOICE • When rewriting active sentences in passive voice, note the following: • The object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence • the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence (or is dropped)

La radio no está enchufada • The robber captured by the police. • El ladrón fue capturado por la policía 5. The picture painted by me. El cuadro fue pintado por mí is is isn’t was was
