The simple present tense is used in the if
clause, and the tense in the main clause is the simple
future tense. EXAMPLE: If you leave now, you'll arrive home early.
We can turn the two clauses the other way round so that their positions are reversed as follow:
Whether the if-clause or the main clause comes earlier, both conditional sentences as above are acceptable.
EXAMPLE: If I see him tomorrow, I'll tell him the good news. (I might see him tomorrow)
EXAMPLE: If you continue to feel better, you will be out of the hospital soon.
EXAMPLE: If you don't hurry, we are going to miss the train. |
