Conditional Sentences
Conditional sentences (придаточные предложения условия) are statements discussing known factors or supposed situations and their consequences. Complete conditional sentences contain a conditional clause (often referred to as the if-clause) and a consecutive clause. If a certain condition is true, then a particular result happens.
Examples: 1. When water reaches 100 degrees, it boils. — 1. Когда температура воды достигает 100 градусов, она закипает. 2. If I had known about conditionals, I wouldn’t have started to learn English. — 2. Если бы я знал про условные предложения, я бы не начал изучать английский!
If an if-clause stands in the beginning of the sentence, use a comma.
Example: If you rest, you will feel better. — Если ты отдохнешь, ты будешь чувствовать себя лучше.
