Soal Conditional type 2

Pengertian Conditional Sentence Type 2

Conditional sentence type 2 atau second conditional adalah conditional sentence yang digunakan ketika result/consequence (hasil) dari condition (syarat) tidak memiliki atau hanya sedikit kemungkinan untuk terwujud karena condition-nya tidak mungkin dipenuhi di masa sekarang (present unreal situation) atau condition-nya sulit untuk dipenuhi di masa depan (unlikely to happen).

Condition berada di dalam subordinate clause dengan subordinate conjunction “if”, sedangkan result/consequence berada di dalam main clause.

Rumus Conditional Sentence Type 2

Bagian conditional clause (if + condition) menggunakan simple past tense, sedangkan bagian main clause (result) menggunakan modal verb dan bare infinitive (infinitive tanpa to).

complex sentence
subordinate clause (if + condition)	main clause (result/consequence)
if + simple past	would/could/might + bare infinitive

If-clause dapat menempati awal atau tengah kalimat. Ketika if-clause menempati awal kalimat, koma ditempatkan sebelum main clause. If … not dapat digantikan dengan unless.

Were Menggantikan Was

Pada conditional sentence type 2, were digunakan menggantikan was meskipun menggunakan singular subject (subjek tunggal: 3rd person pronoun (she, he, it) atau noun). Hal ini untuk menunjukkan bahwa pengandaiannya benar-benar hanya berupa khayalan semata karena condition-nya tidak mungkin dipenuhi (present unreal situation).

complex sentence
subordinate clause (if + condition)	main clause (result/consequence)
if + S + were	would/could/might + bare infinitive
