CONDITIONALS
Conditionals are sometimes called 'if clauses'. They describe the result of something that might
happen (in the present or future) or might have happened but didn't (in the past).
TYPES OF CONDITIONALS
1. Present Real Conditionals
The present real conditional (also called conditional 0) is used to talk about what you
normally do in real-life situations.
Form: [If / When ... simple present ..., ... simple present ...] [... simple present ... if /
when ... simple present ...]
Examples:
a. If I go to church, I wear skirts.
b. I bring wine when I visit my grandpa.
2. Present Unreal Conditionals

It is use to talk about what you would do in an unreal, or imaginary situation. For
example, "If I were you, I would take the job." The key word is would; it makes the conditional
unreal. Would can only be used in the result clause of the sentence.
Form: [If / When ... simple past ..., … would /could/should/might+ simple present ...]
Examples:
a. If they were millionaires, they would travel the world.
b. She could buy a new car if she won the lottery.

Communicative Styles for Various Situations

Communicative style implies that the language used by the speaker varies based on
given situations or settings and the persons involved.
Types of Communicative Styles
1. CONSULTATIVE- It is used in some group discussion, regular conversation at
school, companies, trade, speech conversation, etc. it was the most operational among
the other styles. One of the characteristics of consultative language is its tendency of
average speed, which is higher than formal style.
2. INTIMATE- It is a style among intimate members of a family or friends that do not
need a complete language with clear articulation. It is enough to use short utterances.
Another characteristic of this style is grammar unnecessarily used here, because it can
bring disorder to this intimate style.
3. CASUAL- Also known as informal style, it is usually used between, friends, or even
insiders who have things to share. In this type, there is a free and easy participation of
both speaker and listener.
4. FORMAL-This style is used in formal settings. Unlike the consultative style, this is
one-way. Example: Sermons by priests and ministers, State of the Nation Address of
the President, forma speeches, or pronouncement by judges
5. FROZEN- Also known as fixed speech, it is the highest form of communicative style
which is often used in respectful situations or formal ceremonies.
Activity 3: Identify the type of communicative style appropriate for the following situations.
(intimate, casual, formal, consultative, and frozen).
___________1. leading a prayer before class
___________2. delivering graduation speeches
___________3. talking to a psychologist
