Second Conditional Structure

The second conditional has a clear and simple structure:

Form: If + Past Simple, Would + Base Verb

The condition uses the past simple, and the result uses would + base verb:

• If I had more time, I would learn Spanish.
• If he studied harder, he would pass the test.

You can also reverse the order of the sentence:

• I would learn Spanish if I had more time.
• He would pass the test if he studied harder.
