[Grammar] If I had or If I have

[mrmvp]

Which sentence is correct?

1- If I had a chance, I would meet Spiderman.

2- If I have a chance, I would meet Spiderman.

As far as I know, sentence one is correct, but I do not know if sentence two is correct, too.

In this video, the teacher said that sentence two is correct

If sentence two is correct, then what is the difference between one and two?

You left two words out of sentence two. Look at the video again and see if you can find them.

If you add the missing words, sentence two will be correct.

If I had the chance, I would meet Spiderman.
If I have the chance, I will meet Spiderman.

Thank you so much.

I wonder why the teacher in the video considered " If I had the chance, I have to meet Spiderman" although in second conditional, "would" must be used, not "have". Please correct if I am mistaken.

I have no idea what you're trying to say here. It seems that you are misreading the sentence in the video.

As post #2 was attempting to point out, the second clause of the sentence is I would like to meet Spiderman.

Are you familiar with the verb would like? It is used to say that you have a desire to do something. The fact that the verb would like includes would is what is confusing you here. You're trying to read the sentence as a second conditional instead of as a first conditional.

You are mistaken. The student's paper, and the teacher, say If I have the chance, I would like to meet Spiderman. You missed the words "like" and "to".
