conditional
0 Hi, 02 br

00 Are these all examples of the first conditional? If a if-clause is in the present tense, then any modal verbs can be used and it would still be a first conditional sentence? A zero conditional sentence is the one only states general rules and can't use modal verbs? 02 br
02 br
00 All first conditional?? 02 br
02 br
00 If I hear from you before I leave, I 01 u 00 would call 02 u 00 you when I get home. 02 br
02 br
00 If I get a raise this month, I 01 u 00 would buy 02 u 00 a new car. 02 br
02 br
00 If I play soccer every two days, I 01 u 00 might beat 02 u 00 this illness. 02 br
02 br
00 If I work hard, I 01 u 00 might/would get 02 u 00 a raise before the end of this month. 0-

0 Thank you, Mr. M. Then, what are these ones I wrote? They have if-clauses and what look to be resultant clauses, and also, they seem to be good, sensible sentences. 02 br

1 i 00 would 02 i 00 always belongs to the second conditional. Use 01 i 00 will 02 i 00 instead of 01 i 00 would 02 i 00 in the first two sentences if you want the first conditional. Those first two may seem good, sensible sentences to you, but they aren't correct. 02 br
01 i 00 might 02 i 00 is OK in the last two sentences,
