TARSO – ANTIOQUIA

INTRODUCTION
En la entrada de hoy, vuelvo a traer un poco de gramática, quiero aclarar cómo funcionan las
condicionales. Las estructuras condicionales, o if clauses, son mucho más utilizadas de lo que parece en el
día a día. Se usan para expresar algo que podría ocurrir (en presente y futuro) o que podría haber ocurrido
(en pasado). Además de una explicación de la gramática, también les quiero proponer algunos ejemplos
y ejercicios para practicar el zero condicional en inglés

WHAT WILL I LEARN? QUÉ VOY APRENDER?

Vamos a trabajar los condicionales en inglés, un tiempo verbal que sabemos que os cuesta, ya que
requiere mucha memorización de detalles, y eso se puede llegar a hacer algo pesado. Pero vamos por
partes: hoy vamos a trabajar a fondo el conocido Zero Conditional, uno de los distintos condicionales que
existen en inglés.

WHAT I'M LEARNING? QUÉ ESTOY APRENDIENDO?

Zero Conditional
Se usa para hablar de situaciones o cosas que son siempre verdaderas.
Este tipo de condicional lo usaremos en situaciones en las que si se cumple una condición, siempre se da
un mismo resultado. Es decir, se trata de un tipo de condicional que se utiliza para:
Expresar una relación de causa-efecto en los hechos que siempre son verdaderos (hechos científicos,
hechos particulares, etc.);
Para dar instrucciones. Fíjate en el siguiente ejemplo:
 If you add two and five, you get seven.
 Si sumas 2 más 5, obtienes 7
La estructura del zero conditional en oraciones afirmativas
Ya sabes que los condicionales son oraciones compuestas por dos frases. Exactamente, el zero conditional
tiene la siguiente estructura concreta:
If + sujeto + present simple, sujeto + present simple Ejemplo:
If you eat too much, you get fat – Si comes mucho, te engordas.
If you scare a snake, it bites you – Si asustas a una serpiente, te muerde.

TARSO – ANTIOQUIA

El orden de las dos frases que componen la estructura del condicional se puede cambiar, con eso no tienes
problema; pero recuerda que si la frase con if va en segundo lugar, delante no se pone la coma. Ejemplo:
 You get fat if you eat too much—Engordas si comes mucho
 It bites you if you scare a snake--- Te muerde siasustas a una serpiente.
Zero conditional en negativo:
En estas oraciones, se indica lo que no pasaría en caso de ocurrir otra cosa.
If + Sujeto + Don't/Doesn't + Verbo infinitivo, sujeto + Don't/Doesn't + Verbo infinitivo.
Ejemplo:
 If I don't study, I don't do well on tests. Si no estudio, no hago bien la tesis.
 If She doesn't study, she doesn't do well on tests. Si ella no estudia, no hace bienla tesis.
Sin embargo, también te lo puedes encontrar con esta otra estructura: if…then…,si… entonces…
Ejemplo:
If you don´t study, then you fail.

Reading comprehension

Today in class, my daughter learned that if you mixed yellow and blue you make green. Then she told me
about a science experiment she did, she learned that water melts when it’s heated at 100 degrees. She is
learning so much! She’s growing up so quickly. This morning, I was almost late for work I really don’t want to
be late for work because my boss told me that if I am late for work again, I instantly lose my job. It was such
a stressful day at work, so now I am going to meet my friend at a park and go for a walk. I want to wear
perfume, but I can’t because if I wear perfume, I have reactions to it and I start sneezing. When I got home
from work today, I realised how cold it was, so I turned on the radiator to warm up. But, if I have it on for too
long, it will cost me too much. So, I only had it on for an hour. Tomorrow I am going to cut my hair, I want to
dye my hair blue, but I once heard that dying your hair damages it. So, I often worry about it, my friends told
me that if you dye my hair too much, it falls out.
