HOMEWORK AVANZADO2

Second and Third Conditionals

Compare these examples:

Second: If you planned things properly, you wouldn’t get into a mess (You don’t plan)

Third: If you had planned things properly, you wouldn’t have got into a mess (You didn’t plan)

We can make the so-called mixed conditionals. We can do it leaving the if part as a third conditional and the other as a second one:

If you had planned things at the start, we wouldn’t be in this mess now

If you hadn’t left all these dirty dishes, the place would look nicer

And also making the if part as a second conditional and the other as a third one:

If Matthew was more sensible, he would have worn a suit to the interview

If I didn’t have all this work to do, I would have gone out for the day
