Hi, everybody.

Welcome back to our weekly live stream.

My name is Alicia and today we're going to talk about how to use Wood to talk about the future.

So I've said the future here for this lesson because we're going to cover many different ways to use Wood to imagine the future, to imagine the present.

Also, we're going to talk about using it to make requests and offers and invitations and to express preferences.

Finally, it We're also going to talk about the differences between would and will in conditional sentence is something that I often see learners struggle with.

We have so much to do today, eh?

Facebook is a little bit interesting today, but in the meantime, uh, well, we'll wait like another minute or so.

Well, we get Facebook rolling.

Uh, and then I wanted to mention I'll show this picture will appear in a little in a minute.

Our control desk is fixing some things, but I mentioned every once in a while our weekly Q and A Serie is the weekly Q and A.

Siri's is a chance for you to send your English and culture related questions to me.

Really s o.

The series is called Ask Alicia, and this is a screenshot from Ask Alicia.

Really?

So these air for like, your small, uh, little questions not so big grammar questions, always.

But if you want to participate in this, if you want to send a question to this, you can find the link to the official submission page at English class 121 dot com slash asked Hyphen Alicia.

All right, we're working on a technical issue right now on our Facebook stream, so hopefully we'll be able to get rolling in just a minute.

I'm not sure there's a small Facebook problem.

Apologies.

But if you missed it today, we're talking about how to use Wood to talk about the future.

So I guess for now from Facebook's being a little bit tricky today.

Yeah, so they're mysterious.

So I'm going to start off with our first point for today.

Our first item for today's lesson is conditional, is conditional is, and I'm going to talk about conditional tze with questions.

So a conditional a conditional is a sentence that has that, if something, something, then something, something pattern or you can switch it as well.

So I want to start today's lesson by talking about these condition.

ALS So, uh, first I want to talk about conditional tze with statements so, uh, we'll zoom in a little bit.

Our control desk is busy trying to fix some things right now.

So conditional.

Tze with statements.

First of all, when we make it conditional with a statement, we have a pattern like if our subject were something, something and then we follow it with subject would or wouldn't plus the infinitive form of the verb.

So for today's lesson, I'm going to focus on this, the second conditional.

So maybe some of you know, like first conditional second conditional Third conditional and so on for today's lesson, I'm going to focus on the second conditional, which uses Wood to make a positive statement and wouldn't to make a negative statement.

So when you make a second conditional type sentence, you're describing an unrealized situation in the present.

So something that is not true now, and it's something that's unlikely.

So that means there's a low chance of that thing happening, so something it's unreal.

And that is unlikely is a second conditional statement.

Also, another point here is if you use this conditional sentence.

One big question this says were if subject were something something if subject were something, Something Uh, yeah.

How you two.

I just saw the chat for the first time.

We're having some trouble with Facebook Still, uh, if subject were so when you make a second conditional sentence using wood, make sure you use were here.

Lots of learners asked, like, What's the difference between if I wasn't If I were the difference?

I've talked about a few times in Ask Alicia before.

The difference is if I waas is a simple, past tense statement.

So we want to make a like a statement about the past.

So, for example, if I was noisy last night, I apologize.

That means I don't know if I was noisy or not, But if I waas, I apologize.

So that means there's a chance in the past that thing happened, However, when you use if I work or if subject were, it's referring to the present situation.

Now it's a it's a really, uh, it's an unreal situation now in the present.

So if I were a teacher, I would teach math, for example, that sentence means I am not a teacher.

It is not like a possible situation now, but in that situation I would teach math.

So those sentences, if I were and if I was there, actually often like mixed up by native speakers.

But if you want to make sure to always be correct when you're making a second conditional sentence and you're using this if I were or if he were pattern, make sure to use work.

So let's take a look at some example sentences that use this I'll keep reading cause our control does is still busy trying to fix the Facebook issue.

So I will read our example sentences with this point first.

If I were you, I would study every day.

If I were you, I would study every day.

So here, as I've talked about we used this were here.

So if I were you, this is correct for a second conditional pattern.

If I were you, so I'm not you.

I would study every day.

So after are would we follow with the infinitive form of the verb.

If I were you, I would study every day.

Let's look at another example.

If he had more free time.

He wouldn't be so stressed out.

If he had more free time, he wouldn't be so stressed out.

So this second conditional pattern uses a different verb.

When you're using the second conditional pattern and you're not using this work here, use the past tense, simple past tense form of the verb.

So in this case, if he had so had is the simple, past tense form of have.

If he had more free time, so more meaning more than he does now.

If he had more free time, he wouldn't so wouldn't is the reduced form of would not He wouldn't be so stressed out, he wouldn't be so stressed up.

So this is a negative sentence here.

So in this case, this means the he is.

This person in the sentence does not have very much time and therefore now is stressed up.

So again, we're imagining a present unreal situation.

So if he had more free time, he wouldn't be so stressed.

Only one more example here.

If we won the lottery, we would buy a house.

If we won the lottery, we would buy a house.

So lottery is ah, game of chance you can buy a ticket in the USA, and there will be numbers that are announced for that ticket.

If your tickets numbers match the winning numbers, you can win money or other prices.

So here one is my verb.

I use the simple past tense form.

So if subject if subject here is we if we won the lottery soap Aston's.

If we won the lottery in this unlikely present situation, we would buy a house.

So this part expresses the planned action.

If this is true, this is what we want to do.

We would buy a house.

So this is second conditional statement.

Second conditional statement.

So there are some examples coming in on YouTube.

If I had a Lamborghini, I would be very happy.

Very nice.

Rusk.

A very nice good one.

Good one.

Other ones.

I don't see yet.

Any other one.

Someone repeated.

If he had more time, he wouldn't be so stressed out.

Yeah.

Nice one.

Uh, pasta says if I won the lottery, I would donate that amount to the street.

Wow, That's super nice.

That school.

Great.

Great.

Great.

Okay, so let's continue on to the next point.

This is another pattern for statements that uses, would and wouldn't and that might be a little bit challenging toe.

Understand?

So this is a subject with would or wouldn't be.

So we include the verb be here and then an adjective, an adjective.

So remember, an adjective is a word that describes a noun so beautiful or expensive or fun or exciting.

These are adjectives.

So, uh, let's look at a couple of examples to explain this point.

So let's imagine a conversation between two people.

So person A says, Why don't we go to Hawaii next month?

Why don't we go to Hawaii next month?

And Person B says that would be expensive.

That would be expensive.

So here, in part B Person B's statement, that thing, this idea like going to Hawaii, is what that refers to.

That idea would be expensive.

So it's like saying, if we did that, it would be expensive.

You can imagine this is like a response to the suggestion.

So this pattern is something we often use to respond to ideas to suggestions to advice and so on.

Okay, so the next example here is Do you want to go window shopping from person a Do you want to go window shopping and again person be responds with that would idea.

So that would be fun.

That would be fun.

So again, that refers to the previous sentence in this case, a suggestion.

Do you want to go window shopping and invitation?

So that would that activity would be?

And then my adjective is fun.

That would be fun.

Oh, okay, So this is how we use it for this pattern.

I'll finish up here quickly with questions when we make questions with second conditional, we use that if pattern, if pattern.

So if then pattern I talked about before.

So here we use a, uh W h question.

So that means who, What, where, When and so on.

Plus would then our subject, your extra information, and then we have some kind of, if statement.

So the basic pattern we've talked about this a few times before is when you're making these kinds of sentences and these kinds of questions, we use an if, Klaus plus a main clause.

So you're if Klaus is the part of the sentence that includes the word If so, we practice this up here.

If I were you if he had more free time.

If we won the lottery, these parts are If Klaus is there the parts of the sentence that use if and then there's the main clause.

So the main clause has this information in it.

The result?

There's some kind of results in the main clause, so we can use both.

If Klaus and main clause in either position, you can change.

The position.

Just depends on the focus of your sentence.

Also, please keep in mind one point many learners.

Uh, missus, make sure your wood is in the main clause.

We do not use this in the if, Klaus.

So this is one key point.

Here.

Do not use wood.

Don't use moto verbs in general in the If.

Klaus, please be careful.

Okay.

So let's take a look at a couple of examples and then we'll take a quick break quickly.

So, uh, if you won the lottery, what would you buy?

If you won the lottery?

What would you buy?

So here's my if Klaus, if you won the lottery my If Klaus is here in this case.

So I started back here, What would you buy?

So what is my w H question work would follows it.

My subject is you.

And then my verb here, what would you buy?

What would you buy?

One more.

Where would you live if you could live anywhere?

So here I've swapped it again.

My w h question is first, where would you live?

Issue could live anywhere if you could live anywhere.

So this good means if it were possible, toe live anywhere if it were possible to live in So another one more small point here.

For those of you who like to focus on your punctuation at this point, it's very hard to see right now.
