Gambaran Kasus:
Anda telepon saya dan bilang mau ke rumah saya jam 9 besok. Wah saya nda bisa terima tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas jam 9 itu saya akan sedang berenang. Jadwal saya renang itu 8:30 sampai 10:00. Jadi jam 9 besok itu sedang renang kan? kapan renangnya? besok!. Itulah arti “sedang tetapi akan” ini. Sekarang Anda faham 100 persen kan? Dalam hal ini kita gunakan Future Continuous Tense ya: “I will be swimming at 9 tomorrow, You may not meet me at home”.

Rumus Future Continuous Tense

Positif: S + will + be + Ving

Negatif: S + will not + be + Ving

2.       2. Future Perfect Tense

Gambaran Kasus :

Anda telepon saya dan bilang mau ke rumah saya jam 11 besok. Wah saya bisa terima tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas jam 11 besuk itu saya sudah selesai berenang. Jadwal saya renang itu 8:30 sampai 10:00.

kalo jam 11 besuk  saya SUDAH SELESAI berenang kan? Itulah yang saya maksud dengan SUDAH AKAN ini, Future Perfect Tense: “I will have swum”.

Kok swum? ya, bentuk kata kerja swim dari yang ke-1 sampai ke-3 adalah: swim – swam – swum. Bentuk ING nya swimming

Rumus Future Perfect Tense

Positif: S + will + have + V3

Negatif: S + will + not + have + V3

3.       3. Interupted Past Action

Use the past continuous to express what was happening when something important happened. This form is almost always used with the time clause '... when xyz happened'. It is also possible to use this form with '... while something was happening' to express two past actions that were occurring simultaneously.

This tense is often used with the following time expressions:

... when xyz happened
... while xyz was happening.

Basic Construction

Positive

Subject + was / were + verb + ing + object(s) + time Expression

Sharon was watching TV when she received the telephone call.

Negative

Subject + was / were + not (wasn't, weren't) + verb + ing + object(s) + time Expression

We weren't doing anything important when you arrived.

Question

(Question Word) + was / were + subject + verb + ing + object(s) + time Expression

What were you doing when Tom gave you the bad news?

4.       4. “0” Conditional

When we want to talk about things that are always or generally true, we can use

If/When/Unless plus a present form PLUS present simple or imperative.

• If you press this button, you get black coffee.
• When you fly budget airline, you don't expect to get anything to eat.
• Unless you need a lot of leg-room, don't pay the extra for first class.

Notice that we are talking about something which is generally true, not a specific event.

In the condition clause, there can be a variety of present forms. In the result clause, there can only be the present simple or imperative.

• If you visit Barcelona, you look out for the spectacular architecture.
• If unemployment is rising, people tend to stay in their present jobs.
• If you've finished everything, go home.
• When you go to Barbados, take plenty of sun cream.
• When I'm working, please be quiet.
• When I've written a new article, I run it through my spell-checker.

Notice that 'unless' means the same as 'if not'.

• Unless he asks you to continue, stop all work on the project.
• Unless interest rates are rising, it's not a good investment.
• Unless you've been to Tokyo yourself, you don't really understand how fantastic it is.

5.       5. First Conditional

We use the First Conditional to talk about future events that are likely to happen.

·         If we take John, he'll be really pleased.

·         If you give me some money, I'll pay you back tomorrow.

·         If they tell us they want it, we'll have to give it to them.

·         If Mary comes, she'll want to drive.

The 'if' clause can be used with different present forms.

·         If I go to New York again, I'll buy you a souvenir from the Empire State Building.

·         If he's feeling better, he'll come.

·         If she hasn't heard the bad news yet, I'll tell her.

The "future clause" can contain 'going to' or the future perfect as well as 'will'.

·         If I see him, I'm going to tell him exactly how angry I am.

·         If we don't get the contract, we'll have wasted a lot of time and money.

The "future clause" can also contain other modal verbs such as 'can' and 'must'.

·         If you go to New York, you must have the cheesecake in Lindy's.

·         If he comes, you can get a lift home with him.

65.6 .       Second Conditional

The structure of a second conditional sentence

Like a first conditional, a second conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an "if" clause and a main clause:

if clause	main clause
If I had a million dollars,	I would buy a big house.

If the "if" clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the "if" clause comes second, there is no need for a comma:

main clause	if clause
I would buy a big house	if I had a million dollars.

We use different verb forms in each part of a second conditional:

if clause	if + subject + simple past verb*
main clause	subject + would + verb

*Note that this "simple past" form is slightly different from usual in the case of the verb BE. Whatever the subject, the verb form is "were", not "was": If I were rich, I'd buy a big house.

Using the second conditional

The second conditional is used to talk about things which are unreal (not true or not possible) in the present or the future -- things which don't or won't happen:

Example	Explanation
If I were you, I would drive more carefully in the rain.	I am not you -- this is unreal.
Paula would be sad if Jan left.	Jan will not leave -- that's not going to happen.
If dogs had wings, they would be able to fly.	Dogs don't have wings -- that's impossible.

7.      7.  Third Conditional

The third conditional (also called conditional type 3) is a structure used for talking about unreal situations in the past. This page will explain how the third conditional is formed, and when to use it.

The structure of a third conditional sentence

Like the other conditionals, a third conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an "if" clause and a main clause:

if clause	main clause	explanation
If I had studied harder,	I would have passed the exam.	I failed the exam, because I didn't study hard enough.

If the "if" clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the "if" clause comes second, there is no need for a comma:

main clause	if clause
I probably would have passed the exam	if I had studied harder.

We use different verb forms in each part of a third conditional:

if clause	if + subject + past perfect verb*
main clause	subject + would (OR could, OR might) have + past participle

*The past perfect is formed with the auxiliary verb "had", and the past participle (or third form) of the verb.

Note also that third conditional forms can be contracted:

Full form	If I had studied harder, I probably would have passed the exam.
Contracted form	If I'd studied harder, I probably would've passed the exam.

Using the third conditional

The third conditional is used to talk about things which DID NOT HAPPEN in the past. If your native language does not have a similar construction, you may find this a little strange, but it can be very useful. It is often used to express criticism or regret:

Example	Explanation
If you had driven more carefully, you would not have had an accident.	Criticism: You had an accident because you didn't drive carefully enough.
If we had played a little better, we could have won the game.	Regret: We didn't play well, so we lost the game.
If you had saved your money, you could have bought a computer.	Criticism: You didn't save your money, so now you can't afford a computer.
If it had snowed, we could have gone skiing.	Regret: It didn't snow, so we couldn't go skiing.
