In both of these parts, the verb forms change according to the time of the action(s). 	This structure is used for real and unreal (contrary-to-fact) statements in the present and past tense. Grammar! * For a real condition in the future, the verb in the if-clause is usually in the simple present tense, while the verb in the result clause is in the future or imperative form. CORRECT	If taxes go up, we will need to borrow money. INCORRECT	[If taxes will go up, we will need to borrow money] * Sometimes the verb in the if-clause can have the modal auxiliary will. This is because the original meaning of will was “want”. To say that a person wants or doesn’t want to do something, you can use will + verb instead of the simple present tense in this clause CORRECT	If they don’t compromise, we should cancel the negotiations. OPTION	If they won’t compromise, we should cancel the negotiations. * For a real condition in the past, the verb in the if-clause is in the past, as is the verb in the result clause. CORRECT	If they were waiting for counteroffer, they were wise. INCORRECT	[If they were waiting for counteroffer, they would be wise] Grammar * For an unreal condition in the present, the verb in the if-clause is in the past form, while the verb in the result clause is would or could plus the simple (base) form. 	INCORRECT	[If elephants have wings, they fly.] 	CORRECT	If elephants had wings, they could fly 	 * For an unreal condition in the past, the verb in the if-clause is in the past perfect tense, while the verb in the result clause is would have or could have plus the past participle of the verb. INCORRECT [His choice would have been excellent if he listened to our advice] CORRECT His choice would have been excellent if he had listened to our advice 	 * For an unreal condition in the present, the verb be in the if-clause is usually were, but it can also be was.
