RELATIVE CLAUSES

  Defining Relative Clause We use 'defining relative clauses' when we want to give more information about the person or thing we are talking about. Without that information, the sentence will be meaningless. Saying … “Send me the photo” is not the same as “Send me the photo which I took of you yesterday.” Examples… That's the woman who stole my coat. That's the man that I spoke to last week. Where is the apple that I told you not to eat? This is the cat which I adopted. The hospital where I was born is being knocked down. Remember… It contains essential information about the noun.

1. The Unreal Conditional is used when referring to unreal, imaginary or impossible conditions and their results. Both- If Clause and Result Clause, present the unreal result of the condition.

The verb in the If Clause is shown in simple past tense. In the Result Clause the auxiliary Would + base form of the verb is used. Example:   If Luisa went to Cusco , she would spend a great time Note:  a. The If Clause uses the simple past tense, but the meaning does not refer to the past. · If I had money now, I would supply many things to myself. b. Do not use the auxiliary Would in the If Clause in present unreal conditional sentences. · If I bought some flowers to Mary, she would be happy. NOT: If I would buy ....... c. Use Were for all people when the verb in the If Clause is in the basic form (be). · If I were a king
