 Need advice on the use of Conditionals, thanks teachers! If a question ask: Would you like to be as clever as Einstein? Why/Why not? When giving reason, should we use zero conditional or second conditional as in: If I am so clever, I can do any jobs I like. If I am wrong in answering the above question, how should I answer it? What tense should I use? THank you very much for helping, teachers! From Help Wanted  |

| Re: Need advice on the use of Conditionals, thanks teachers! Personally, I would choose type two. It seems to me that type zero is used when conveying unquestionable truths. Given that this question is hypothetical, I would go with the somewhat "loose" type two. It would ultimately depend on the context, though... |
