What is the First Conditional?

We use the First Conditional to talk about possible future events (các sự kiện có thể xảy ra trong
tương lai) and their likely results (kết quả có khả năng xảy ra).

Structure:

If + present simple , will + base form

If it rains tomorrow , we will stay.

If I study hard , I will pass the exam.

You can swap the clauses:


We will stay if it rains tomorrow.
I will pass the exam if I study hard.

Variations: may, might, could & present continuous

To show possibility rather than certainty, replace will with may / might / could:

 If you ask politely, they may help you.


 If she catches the 8 am train, she might arrive early.
 If we plan well, we could finish in time.

To talk about fixed plans or arrangements, use the present continuous instead of “will”:

 If he is coming to the party, we are meeting at 6 PM.


 If they are playing tomorrow, I am going to watch.
