CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION A. Background In grammar, conditional sentence is sentence discussing factual implications or hypothetical situations their consequences. Language use a variety of conditional constructions and verb forms (such as the conditional mood) to form such sentences. Conditional sentence is a supposition sentence that conditional which consist from two part: if clause (condition) and main clause (result). Besides that, full conditional sentence contain two clause : condition and consequence or apodosis. Syntactically, the conditional is the subordinate clause and the consequence is the main clause. However, the properties of the entire sentence are primarily determined by the properties of the condition (it is tense and degree of factualness) B. Limitation of the study 1.

C. The significance of the study 1. To help for knowing about definition of the conditional sentence. 2. For knowing the types and function of each the conditional sentence.

CHAPTER 1 DISCUSSION CONDITIONAL SENTENCE A. Definition of conditional sentence Conditional sentence is a supposition sentence that conditional which consist from two parts: if clause (condition) and main clause (result).

B. The kinds of the conditional sentence Conditional sentence consist from 3 kinds. In English, this sentence have function, meaning, and purpose are different in using. The kind of conditional sentence: 1. Conditional sentence type 1 In this type, conditional sentence use two form of tense (present and future). This sentence is using to conditional for something in future. If(in future),....(possibility that happen if the condition have fulfilled). Formula: If + S. Present Tense, Future Tense or Future Tense + If + S. Present Tense Examples: If you study hard, you will get success. You will get success if you study hard. Besides that, there are the others formula that included in category of conditional sentence type 1: a. To clarifying make planning If + S. Present Tense + Future Tense Examples:

If you have much money, I will invite you to Australia. He will go to Unite States if he has a lot of money.

b. To clarifying habitual result If + S. Present Tense + Future Tense Examples: If I have a car, Ill take you to school everyday. Ill travel around the world If I am a success businessman.

c. To clarifying the conditional If + S. Present Tense + might /may/can Examples: If you have free time, you may come here everyday. You may watch TV if you finish your homework.

d. To clarifying or to ask permission If + S. Present Tense + may/might/can/could/would Examples: If youre not busy, you might be here at any time. You might be here if you are not busy.

e. To give agree of permission If + S. Present Tense + may/can/could Examples: f. If its free, you can take it for your mother. You could ride your bike if you have a driving license.

To clarifying the conditional If + S. Present Tense + can Examples: If they are here, we can ask him the question. Susan can speak English very well if she stays England.

g. To clarifying the command If + S. Present Tense + must Examples: If you want to get much money, you must work hard. You must study hard if you want to get success.

h. To clarifying the request

If + S. Present Tense + will/would/can/could Examples: i. If you rich, you would be on the space with NASA crew. You could go from here if you can do this task.

k. To clarifying prefektur / estimation If + S. Present Tense + must/can/cant/could/should Example: If its possible, you can be right. You could understand if youre really clever. 2. Conditional sentence type 2 Its same with conditional sentence type 1, in this type also used two different tense. Conditional type 2 is used to clarifying the condition at now and reflect an image. But, we also can use to describe the situation in the future. Formula: If + S. Past Tense, Future Past Tense or Future Tense + if + Past Tense Examples: If animal could speak, wed be able to understand what they think. If all the ice in the world melted, many coasted towns would disappear.

Conditional sentence type 2 used to: a. Supposition is contrary to the fact that there. Examples: If he knew it, he would tell us. If she had much money she would buy a car. If someone tried to blackmail me, I would tell the police.

b. We do not expect any activity that occurs in subordinate clauses. Example: If a thief came into my room at night, Id scream. Some clause can double mean and avoid the use agreement was/were + infinitive instead of conditional sentence type 2: If he/she/it considered a form which is more correct than if she/he/it was. If he were to resign..= if he resigned. If I were to success.= if I succeed c. Variation basic shaped a) variation of clauses Might or could can used instead of would Example: If you tried again you would succeed. form of continuous conditional sentence can used apart form of simple. Example: Peter is on holiday, he is touring Italy. If I were on holiday I would/ might be touring Italia. b) Variation of main clause Form If + Past Tense, we can use: If + Past Continuous Example: If my car was working I would/ could drive you to the station. If + Past Perfect Example: If he had taken my advice he would be a rich man now.

3. Conditional sentence type 3 In this type, the conditional sentence is use for supposition something condition that never happen in past. Formula: If + Past Perfect, Future Past Perfect or Future Past Perfect + if + Past Perfect. Examples: If I had tried harder, he would have won. If Jane had come on her usual train, I would have seen her. John F. Kennedy wouldnt have died in 1963 if he hadnt gone to Dallas. I would have phone you if I hadnt lost your phone number. I wouldnt have gone to museum if I had known it was shut.

Besides that formula, we also can use WISHES/WISH to tell something which we doesnt know that happen and we reflect an image it had happen. Formula: S + wishes/wish + had + V3 S + wishes/wish + had not + V3 Example: He wishes he had studied hard at school. I woke up very late this morning. I wish had gone to bed earlier last night. Many people wishes that John F. Kennedy had not gone to Dallas in 1963.

4. Special uses of will/would and should in clauses Generally said that auxiliary verb will/would and should not use in the back if of conditional sentence, but there are certain exceptions: If you will/would/ can use in the polite request. If + will/would can use everybody for demonstrate a willingness. If + would like/ care can use instead of if/want/wish.

5. Conditional sentence in indirect speech Type 1 basic form. This tense changed to the way ordinary.
