If I hadn’t been so pressed for time I would have congratulated you for getting the sixth point!
This lesson was a peace of cake. Simple but useful – hard work never did anyone any harm.
Thank you Benjamin!

nataanna

Good using of the third condition :)

struggleForEng

How have u been Mr/Benjamin I haven’t seen u long time ago

kotoz

Thanks, I wonder why is this lesson classified as advanced?

struggleForEng

I’ve the same question too :) :)

osama9988

It is due to “will” in Imperative in result clause I think.

proverbial horse

Ah I see, maybe.
In any way the very useful lesson of Benjamin (for me ) is that one in which he explained the third condition, I had not even heard about it yet.

struggleForEng

Thanks for the lesson, I really appreciated that.

Thank you Benjamin for this interesting lesson
But the first sentence of the quiz is incorrect
“If you add salt to water it will boil later (not faster)” in accordance with the Raoult’s law
P solution : X solvent x P solvent
P solution :

violetree

Agree, I noticed too

kukyruzka

Actually if you add salt to water it last more to boil, because the salt increase the boiling point of water, it is usefull when you want to reach a higher temperature, for example if you are cooking pasta, it will be done faster if you add salt because the water will reach a higher temperature.

Hi Benjamin and welcome back!
Unless I’m still in the arms of Morpheus, I have to point up that if you’re crossing the road in London , first of all you have to look to the right and then to the left because people drive on the wrong side of the road.
Ah..ah…ah…of course I’m kidding, the rest of the world runs wrongly and you drive correctly :)

Thank you that’s useful lesson … very nice

Abd hamad

If you don’t study you never will speak English.

shavi98

Actually, the correct one is: you will never speak English.

struggleForEng

Another lesson about the Zero Conditional what is generally true like a scientific fact… If + present simple + present simple or Imperative, like a piece of cake as Nataanna has written as an English Idiom. An easy lesson but very important to understand their other Conditionals (First, Second, Three, and Mixed), but anyway it has been entertained. Thanks a lot, teacher Benjamin, as always a very useful lesson.

joe921

That was easy

zoranseremet

“If you hold the power button, the phone will turn off.”

“If you add salt to the water it will boil faster”

Isn’t it a first conditional? I don’t see a difference. Could somebody explain it to me?

Thank you Benjamin

kheireddine007

Doesn’t bellow quiz questions break the “zero conditional” rules?

4. If you drop a rock, it will fall.
9. If you set an alarm, you won’t forget.

Rule according to the video:
If + present simple, present simple.

But obvious this two questions rule is:
If + present simple, future simple.
Which is actually “first conditional”, isn’t it?

rokaly

in these case we are talking about mixed conditionals, it’s not as easy peasy lemon squeezy

tpaolo

Hi Benjmi, nice lesson.
By the way, the water boil slower when you add salt. That should be the fact.

cabrerafs

I really love the class, thanks Benjamin

I have one question dear Bejamin.
If I work hard, I will pass…….. an example of first conditional
If you add salt to water, it will boil faster…….I think it should be ” If you add salt to water, it boils faster ” being a universal truth or a scientific rule. Putting WILL shall make it one of the ” first conditional sentence “. There were several such examples in the quiz and quite as per your video. Just a review and a confirmation is required from your side to ascertain the right degree of conditional.
Regards,
Ashifa

Short notes
Zero conditional for UNIVERSAL FACTS/RULES
SENTENCE STRUCTURE
If/when/unless/(if not) + Present simple + Present simple

Examples:
1. When it rains, the floor becomes slippery
2. The water won’t boil faster unless you add salt to it
3. If you drop a pebble in the water, it drowns down quickly.
4. If you’re a cheater, you will lose in the end.
5. You will definitely win the match if you believe in your strengths and leave the weaknesses behind
6. If you know the weaker part of your enemy, you can knock him down instantaneously.
7. If he is telling the truth, he must be here by now.
8. If you look into yourself before pointing anybody else, you can improve your behavioral disorders quickly.
9. If you do a lot of internet surfing, soon you start having lot of trouble with your eye sight.
10. If only he is polite, he can get this job.

Ashifa

thanks but ı feel confused about this sentence because of model “will”. Is it still zero conditional? “My teacher will get mad at me unless ı do all my homework”.

sorry modal

Unless you learn English you will not be able to communicate here

Emejota

Hello!! Thanks.. It was a great lesson…I have a question for you! If you don’t mind! I am confused, I did not understand ‘imperative’.. Can I use ‘will’ in Zero conditional rules? Can i use modals in Zero conditional? Thanks again…

hcoco1

I’ very got all the right answers on the quiz!

My knowledge about English has been added again with this helpful video !
