We use unreal conditionals to talk about: A situation that is not real, but that we imagine.
If I had money, I
would buy a car.
If they finished their homework, they could play
soccer.

Are these real situations?
Do I really have
money?
Do they really finish
their homework?

How do we make this type of conditional grammar? Look at these examples:
1. If my friend asked me for money, I would lend it to her.
2. Tomas would be happier if he got a less stressful job.
3. Speaking in English would be
easier if you practiced more frequently.
After the IF, use ____________________ of the verb.
In the other clause, use __________________.

NOTICE THAT YOU CAN START THESE SENTENCES WITH THE IF-CLAUSE OR
WITH THE WOULD-CLAUSE:

Marta would learn another language if she moved abroad.

Important Note!When making these kinds of conditional sentences, we use WERE, not was, for all subjects (including I, he, she).
If I were you, I would buy that house.
I would buy a mansion if I
werewealthy.
