GRAMMAR REVIEW: Topic: Real Condition IF Clause not in Present Tense (5-6 minutes) ( 時 条件 を表す副詞節 ) A Real Condition If Clause is used to indicate a condition (present conditional) or prediction (future conditional); the main clause that precedes or follows this is used to present the result. ( 時 条件 を表す副詞節 (IF を使用した条件節 ) には 動詞は現在形を使用します ) Ex. If Sandy Bricks stars in the movie, I am definitely going to watch it. IF Clause Main Clause ( 条件節 ) ( 主節 ) ( 例 : もしサンディ ブリックスが映画で主役を演じるならば 私は絶対に観にいくだろう ) In both present and future conditional If Clauses, the present tense of the verb should be used. A common mistake of using the future tense instead of the present tense of the verb in writing Real Condition If Clauses is often committed. ( 時 条件 を表す副詞節に使用される動詞は 主節が現在形であっても未来形であっても 現在形となります 間違えて未来形を使用しないように気をつけましょう ) Remember: The present tense of the verb should be used in writing Real Condition If Clauses. ( ポイント : 時 条件 を表す副詞節の動詞は現在形となる ) Page 3
