TAKE NOTE! The second conditional.

We use the second conditional to talk about an impossible or unlikely event and its
result.
If I were you, I would eat less.
We can put the if clause at the end. The meaning is the same.
He wouldn´t have any money if he didn´t work
We don´t use a comma when the if clause is at the end.
AFFIRMATIVE: If + sujeto+ past simple, sujeto + would + verb
NEGATIVE: If + sujeto+ past simple, sujeto + wouldn´t + verb
USOS:
El condicional de segundo grado se usa en situaciones bastante improbables o
incluso imposibles de que suceda.

 Elige la forma correcta del verbo.

1. If It weren´t so hot, we played/´d play outside.
2. If he didn´t watch/wouldn´t watch so much Tv, he wouldn´t be so tired.
3. I´d speak better English if I spent/ ´d spend more time in England.
4. If my mum won the lottery, she didn´t give up/wouldn’t give up her job.
