Drugi tryb warunkowy –

If she came I would be happy. (She is not going to come however strong I wish because she is having classes now!)
If she weren’t so wise I wouldn’t talk to her (but she IS wise , it cannot be changed...)
Trzeci tryb warunkowy –
mówi o przeszłych sprawach, które się już wydarzyły i można tego odwrócić! Mogę jedynie ŻAŁOWAĆ i gdybać co było gdyby to się nie zdarzyło (co już się zdarzyło i się nie odstanie!~!!)

Would have + czasownik ED
Would not have + czasownik ED
Could/Might have+ czasownik ED
Could not/ Might not have+ czasownik ED
I had been/ I hadn’t been

If she hadn’t come I wouldn’t have known her.
If they had brought umbrellas they wouldn’t have been wet (Gdyby przynieśli na 100 % nie byliby mokrzy!)
If she had used the safety screen hey eyes could have been better. (być może - nie na pewno!)
Zero: present + present If you press this button, the engine stops. (always true)
First: Present +will If she rings this evening, I’ ll let you know.
Second: Past + would What would you do if you became President?
Third: Past perfect +would have If I hadn’t saved her that night, she’d have drowned.
Condition is formed in the if clause followed by a comma in the result clause.
You can also put the result clause first without using a comma between the clauses. see above ↑
If they had more money, they would build a new house.
They would build a new house if they had more money.
Mixed conditionals:
Type 1/3 If he is honest he wouldn’t have taken the money from my purse.
Type 2/3 If I knew him better I would have invited him.
Type 3/2 If he had finished earlier he wouldn’t be working now!
In polite requests only!!
will/ should can be used instead of present should ... would
(usual in business letters)
I should be grateful if you would send me your estimate date as soon as possible.
I should appreciate if you would put the matter in hand as your earliest convenience
I will carry the tea things if you will bring the teapot.(usual in polite requests)
Should and were to are used in conditional sentences in all persons to suggest improbability.
