Example:

If I study English, I will get good score in TOEFL. (If I learn English, I'll get a good score on the TOEFL test)
If I had a lot of money, I would buy an expensive car. (If I have a lot of money, I'll buy an expensive car)
If i were you, I would work in that foreign company. (If I were you I would work for the foreign company)
If I have got a high score in the national examination, I would have studeid in a state university. (If I get good grades in a national exam, I'll study in a state college)
We would have got the ticket if we had come earlier. (We'll get tickets if we arrive early.)
Note:
There are two parts in the structure of the finishing sentence. Namely mduk Sentence (main clause) and clause (in the form of if clause).
Example:
If I work hard , 1 will have a lot of money .
If clause main clause
The structure or position of the parent and clause in the conditional sentence can be changed.
Example:
If I have got high score in the national examination, 1 would have entered state university.
1 would have entered a state university if I had got high score in the national examination.
Note:
When the parent position is in front, there is no need for a comma separator (,) between the parent and the sentence.
When the clause position ( if clause ) is in front, then the separator is used as a comma (,).

Fact:
I did not prepare some foods a few hours ago so 1 am hungry right now. (I did not prepare food a few hours ago, so I'm hungry now).
If there are uses were , had (past perfect) , and should sometimes have an if omission .
Example:

There is a pattern of a sentence that indicates a conditional sentence,
Example:
I would have come to your party, but I have to go to my sister's wedding party. (If I do not have to go to my sister's wedding I will definitely come to your party).
