Grammar: Third conditional.

Third conditional sentences: if+had+past participle, would+have +past participle.

Use the 3^rd conditional sentences to talk about a hypothetical/imaginary situations in the past and its consequence. Compare: Yesterday I got up late and missed my train (real situation).

If I hadn`t got up late yesterday, I wouldn`t have missed my train (imaginary situation)

Structure of the third conditional

positive negative question

If I'd (I had) known you were coming, I would have waited for you. If she hadn't (had not) been ill, she would have gone to the cinema. Would you have done it if you'd (you had) known earlier?

The third conditional - common mistakes

Common mistakes Correct version Why?

~~If I would have asked him, he would have helped me.~~ If I had asked him, he would have helped me. In the if-clause we use the past perfect (had + past participle). We don't use 'would' or 'would have' in the if-clause.

~~If you had spoken to my mother, she would tell you where I was.~~ If you had spoken to my mother, she would have told you where I was. The main clause has would + have + past participle.
