Conditional Sentences Type 0

Definition of Conditional Sentences

A conditional sentence is a sentence in English that is used to express wishes, hopes, assumptions, or plans that may or may not come true.

The general formula for conditional sentences is:

If + condition, consequence

Or it could be the reversed formula

Consequence + if + condition

From this form, we can see that conditional sentences have 2 forms, namely

"If-clause + main clause".

If you pay attention, the if-clause is part of the conditional sentence. Meanwhile, the main clause usually contains consequences or consequences of the preconditioned condition.

Conditional sentence types

Basically, conditional sentences are divided into four types, namely types 0,1,2 and 3

Conditional Sentences Type 0

This type is usually referred to as zero conditional sentences. This type of sentence is used when the result or consequence of a condition is manifested alias describes a general truth and facts using the formula "if ... then"

This sentence is usually in the form of the present tense with the formula:

If + simple present, simple present.

Example of sentences :

• If we burn paper, it becomes ash. 
• I feel sick if I eat too much. 
• If you don't brush your teeth, you get cavities.
• I get tired if i work too much 

Passive Voice

Definition of Passive Voice

Passive voice is a form of sentence in which the subject of the sentence is the one who receives the action, not the one who takes the action.

The function of the passive voice

Passive voice is used to show interest in a person or object that is subjected to an action and not a person or object performing the action.

Example

• The house was built in 1654. (kita tertarik dengan rumahnya, bukan siapa yang membangunnya.) 
•  The road is being repaired. (kita tertarik dengan jalannya, bukan siapa yang melakukan perbaikan.)

Sometimes, using passive voice is because you don't know or don't want to say who did the action.

Example

• I noticed that a window had been left open.  
• All the cookies have been eaten.

Forms a passive voice

Passive voice with infinitives

The passive infinitive is used after a modal verb (a modal verb), and other verbs are usually followed by an infinitive.

Example

• John might be promoted next year. 
• She wants to be invited to the party. 
• I expect to be surprised on my birthday.

Passive voice with gerunds

The gerund is used after a preposition, and verbs are usually followed by a gerund.

Example

• I remember being taught to drive.   
• The children are excited about being taken to the zoo.

Using 'to be born'

To be born is the passive form and is usually used in the past tense. However, in some cases, the present or future tense can be used.

Example

• I was born in 1976.  
• Where were you born?  
• We don't know on exactly which day the baby will be born.

The following table changes from Active Voice of all tenses to Passive Voice
