We do not normally use will or would in the conditional clause, only in the main clause.

Uses of the Conditional

1. First conditional
1. Nature: Open condition, what is said in the condition is possible.
2. Time: This condition refers either to present or to future time.
   e.g. If he is late, we will have to go without him.
   If my mother knows about this, we are in serious trouble.

2. Second conditional
1. Nature: unreal (impossible) or improbable situations.
2. Time: present; the TENSE is past, but we are talking about the present, now.
   e.g. If I knew her name, I would tell you.
   If I were you, I would tell my father.
   Compare: If I become president, I will change the social security system. (Said by a presidential candidate)
   If I became president, I would change the social security system. (Said by a schoolboy: improbable)
   If we win this match, we are qualified for the semifinals.
   If I won a million pounds, I would stop teaching. (improbable)

3. Third conditional
1. Nature: unreal
2. Time: Past (so we are talking about a situation that was not so in the past.)
   e.g. If you had warned me, I would not have told your father about that party.(But you didn't, and I have).

Remember!

1. The conditional construction does not normally use will or would in if-clauses. EXCEPTION: If will or would express willingness, as in requests, they can be used in if-clauses.

e.g. If you will come this way, the manager will see you now.
I would be grateful if you would give me a little help.
(= ± please, come this way; please, give me...)

2. For the second conditional, were replaces was:

If I were a rich man...

3. After if, we can either use "some(-one, -where...)" or "any(-one, -where...).

If I have some spare time next weekend....or :
If I have any spare time...

4. Instead of if not, we can use unless.

e.g. I'll be back tomorrow unless there is a plane strike.
He'll accept the job unless the salary is too low.

5.There is a "mixed type" as well, for the present results of an unreal condition in the past:

If + Past Perfect - would + inf.
If you had warned me [then], I would not be in prison [now].

Adjective Clause & Noun Clause

Adjective Clause

An adjective clause is simply a group of words with a subject and a verb that provide a description. The clause starts with a pronoun such as who, whom, that, or which or an adverb such as when, where and why.

The adjective clause will follow one of these two patterns:

Relative Pronoun or Adverb + Subject + Verb

Relative Pronoun as Subject + Verb

Here are some examples:

Whose big, brown eyes pleaded for another cookie

Whose = relative pronoun; eyes = subject; pleaded = verb.

Why Fred cannot stand sitting across from his sister Melanie

Why = relative adverb; Fred = subject; can stand = verb [not, an adverb, is not officially part of the verb].

That bounced across the kitchen floor

That = relative pronoun functioning as subject; bounced = verb.

Who hiccupped for seven hours afterward

Who = relative pronoun functioning as subject; hiccupped = verb.

Avoid writing a sentence fragment.

An adjective clause does not express a complete thought, so it cannot stand alone as a sentence. To avoid writing a fragment, you must connect each adjective clause to a main clause.

Read the examples below. Notice that the adjective clause follows the word that it describes.

Diane felt manipulated by her beagle Santana, whose big, brown eyes pleaded for another cookie.

Chewing with her mouth open is one reason why Fred cannot stand sitting across from his sister Melanie.

Snarling and skidding on the smooth tile, Oreo and Skeeter, Madison's two dogs, competed for the hardboiled egg that bounced across the kitchen floor.

Laughter erupted from Annamarie, who hiccupped for seven hours afterward.

Noun Clause

What Are Noun Clauses?

A noun clause is a clause that plays the role of a noun. For example (noun clauses shaded):

·                     I like what I see.

·                     I know that the tide is turning.

·                     I've met the man who won the lottery.

(Not all agree this is a noun clause. See Note on the right.)

Compare the three examples above to these:

·                     I like cakes.

·                     I know London.

·                     I've met Madonna.

The words in bold are all nouns. This shows that shaded clauses in the first three examples are functioning as nouns, making them noun clauses.

Like any noun, a noun clause can be a subject, an object, or a complement.

In a sentence, a noun clause will be a dependent clause. In other words, a noun clause does not stand alone as a complete thought.

Examples of Noun Clauses

Here are some examples of noun clauses:

·                     A person who trusts no one can't be trusted. (Jerome Blattner)

(This noun clause is the subject of the sentence.)
(Not all agree this is a noun clause. See Note on the right.)

·                     That he believes his own story is remarkable. (Jerome Blattner)

(This noun clause is the subject of the sentence. Be aware that starting a sentence with a noun clause starting That is acceptable, but it grates on lots of people's ears. As a result, many writers prefer to precede it with "The fact…".)

·                     Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying. (Fran Lebowitz)

(This noun clause is the direct object of ask.)

·                     He knows all about art, but he doesn't knowwhat he likes. (James Thurber, 1894-1961)

(This noun clause is the direct object of know.)

·                     It is even harder for the average ape to believethat he has descended from man. (H L Mencken, 1880-1956)

(This noun clause is the direct object of believe.)

·                     I never know how much of what I say is true. (Bette Midler)

(This noun clause is an object of a preposition.)

·                     Man is what he eats. (Ludwig Feuerbach)

(This noun clause is a subject complement.)

·                     My one regret in life is that I am not someone else. (Woody Allen)

(This noun clause is a subject complement.)

·                     An economist is a man who states the obvious in terms of the incomprehensible. (Alfred A Knopf)

(This noun clause is a subject complement.)
(Not all agree this is a noun clause. See Note on the right.)

Phrasal Verb

Phrasal Verb

Phrasal Verb is a phrase that is a combination of a standard verb (example: go, make, take) and one or two particle. Particle (s) used may be an adverb and / or preposition. This phrase is very important to learn because it is commonly used in everyday conversation native speakers and informal written language. An important point in the study is to understand the meaning of this phrase and how to use them.

Example phrasal verb:

call on, go away, make up, stand up for, take off

Phrasal Verb
Most phrasal verb means of each constituent word (verb and particle) or from the verb alone where the particle is used to emphasize the meaning. So it is not too difficult for non-native learner to understand that term.

Example Sentences Phrasal Verb:

• You can put off your shoes here. (Kamu dapat melepas sepatumu disini.)
• He will get into trouble if you drink alcohol. (Dia akan masuk ke dalam masalah jika dia minum alkohol.)
• The man has decided to close his business down. (Pria itu telah memutuskan untuk menutup usahanya selamanya.)

But some phrasal verb that can not be guessed meaning of its constituent components, or in other words an idiom. This group is often confusing. The solution is to memorize meaningful phrasal verb idioms commonly used in everyday life.

Example Sentences Phrasal Verb:

•  While studying, she dropped off. (Ketika sedang belajar, dia tertidur.)
• The subsidized fuel has run out. (BBM Premium telah habis.)

In addition, many of the phrasal verb that has more than one meaning, both meaningful and true idiom.

Example Sentences Phrasal Verb:

• Toni picked up that ball. (Toni mengambil (dengan tangan) bola itu.)
• Pick up your shoes. (Rapikan sepatumu.)
• My brother picked up some hats. (Saudara laki-lakiku mengoleksi beberapa buah topi.)

Using Phrasal Verb
To be able to communicate with more natural, is not enough for non-native English with only understand the meaning of each phrasal verb, but also must understand how to use his or grammar. Basically this phrase verb transitive or intransitive can be. Explanation and some examples of its use in a sentence is as follows.
Transitive Phrasal Verb
Transitive phrase is a phrase that can be followed by direct object (noun or pronoun). Most of the verb phrase can be separated (separable) by the direct object of the verb with its particle. If the object in the form of noun phrases can be separated or not. But if the object in the form of a pronoun (me, you, her, him, it, us, you, them) the phrase must be separated.

Example separable phrasal verb: 

• You have to give away your cat. [give (something) for free= memberikan secara gratis]
• You have to give your cat away. (Kamu harus memberikan kucingmu.)
• You have to give it away. (object= pronoun it)
• It’s difficult to carry out the plan. [accomplish= mengerjakan]
• It’s difficult to carry the plan out. (Sulit untuk mengerjakan rencana tersebut.)

Most other verb phrase can not be separated (Inseparable) between the verb with its particle. The reason is because of its particle is needed to establish the meaning of a particular idiom. So if separated would change the meaning. Unfortunately there are no rules on how to determine a phrase is Inseparable. The only solution is to memorize the phrases.

Example Inseparable phrasal verbs:

• He got in the car to test drive it. [enter= masuk] (Dia masuk ke mobil untuk mengetes drive.)
• I will look after your garden when you are in abroad. [look after= merawat] (Saya akan merawat tamanmu ketika kamu di luar negeri.)
• I couldn’t believe that they expected me to wait on them. [serve= melayani] (Saya tidak dapat percaya bahwa mereka mengharapkan saya untuk melayani mereka.)

There is also a phrasal verb which consists of two particle (three-word phrasal verb).

Example three word phrasal verb:

• My father said that he looks forward to meeting you. [anticipate= menantikan] (Ayah saya mengatakan bahwa dia menanti untuk bertemu denganmu.)
• I couldn’t put up with his behavior any longer. [tolerate= menolerir] (Saya tidak dapat menolerir kelakuannya lebih lama lagi.)

Intransitive Phrasal Verb

Intransitive phrase is a phrase that can not be followed by a direct object. Thus, this phrase always Inseparable.

Example intransitive phrasal verb:

• I wake up at 4 am every day. [awaken= bangun] (Saya bangun pukul 4 setiap hari.)
• He wonder if he could go back to Myanmar. [return= kembali] (Dia bertanya-tanya apakah dia bisa kembali ke Myanmar.)
• She dressed up quickly and left for the party. [wear formal/fancy clothes= memakai pakaian formal/bagus] (Dia berpakaian cepat dan pergi ke pesta.)
