Pengertian, Contoh Kalimat, dan Jenis-Jenis Mixed Conditionals Sentences

Taukah anda, ternyata unreal conditional sentences (kalimat pengandaian yang tidak mungkin terjadi) terkadang muncul dalam beberapa kombinasi tenses secara bersamaan. Maksudnya, dalam sebuah kalimat pengandaian, khusunya yang tidak mungkin terjadi, dimungkinkan adanya kombinasi penggunaan teses yang berbeda semisal “Past Unreal Conditional pada kalusa if kemudian dikombinasikan dengan Present Unreal Conditional pada klausa result.” Ini berarti bahwa waktu dalam klausa if tidak sama dengan waktu dalam klausa result. Pelajari contoh di bawah ini untuk memahami cara mengombinasikan beberapa bentuk kata kerja kondisional seperti yang biasa diucapkan oleh native speaker.

Kata kerja berwarna “biru” adalah Present Unreal Conditional.

Kata kerja berwarna “merah” adalah Past Unreal Conditional.

Kata kerja berwarna “hijau” adalah Future Unreal Conditional.
