** Now let's continue studying the conditionals. Two weeks ago we studied the first conditional. ( Simple Present/ Simple future/ Will). Last week we took a look on the second conditional. ( Simple Past / Future in the past /Would ). Now we are going to learn the third conditional. ( Perfect Past / Perfect Future in the past / Would have ).
........................................................................................
** Agora vamos continuar estudando as condicionais. Dua semanas atrás estudamos a primeira condicional. ( Presente Simples / Futuro/ Will). Semana passada demos uma olhada na segunda condicional. ( Passado Simples / Futuro do passado / Would). Hoje vamos aprender a terceira condicional. ( Passado perfeito / Futuro do passado perfeito / Would have )

.......................................................................................

** Pay attention on these sentences:

1- First conditional  = If you study every week , you will speak  fluent  english.
2- Second conditional  = If you studied every week , you would speak fluent english.
3- Third conditional  = If you had studied every week, you would have spoken fluent english.
.........................................................................................................

1- If your daughter helps you , your life will be easier.
2- If your daughter helped you , your life would be easier.
3- If your daughter had helped you, your life would have been easier.
..........................................................................................................

1- If today is national holiday , I won't work.
2- If today were national holiday, I wouldn't work.
3- If today had been national holiday, I wouldn't have worked.
...........................................................................................................

** In the third conditional we use the Past Perfect and the future in the past Perfect. Do you remember the Perfect Tense? It is formed by the HAVE auxiliar + Past Participle.
............................................................................................................
** Na terceira condicional usamos o passado perfeito e o futuro do passado perfeito. Lembra se do tempo perfeito? É aquele formado pelo auxiliar HAVE + o Participio passado do verbo principal.

............................................................................................................

Obs: In Class I will explain how the Perfect tense works, alright?
**  Em sala explicarei como funciona o tempo perfeito, certo?
............................................................................................................


Try to memorize these structures and you will never make mistakes with the conditionals.

** First Conditional  =  Simple Present / Future with Will
** Second Conditional  = Simple Past / Future with Would
** Third Conditional  = Had + Participle / Would Have + Participle.
.............................................................................................................

Observem esse exemplo:

**If I have money , I will buy a car for you.
**If I had money , I would buy a car for you.
**If I had had money, I would have bought a car for you.
..........................................................................................................
###Esse é um raro caso onde o passado é colocado duas vezes na mesma frase , e lado a lado. O que nos leva a pensar que algo está errado, mas não está. 

** Vamos analisar com bastante calma. O auxiliar para o tempo perfeito é HAVE, certo? 
** Se a frase está no passado então o auxiliar também vai para o passado , certo? E o passado de Have é Had. 
** Assim na terceira condicional o primeiro HAD se refere ao passado do auxiliar Have. 
* * E o segundo Had? 
** Esse , por sua vez , se refere ao passado participio do verbo Have que tambem é HAD.
