Grammar Point
Third Conditional
It talks about the past. It's used to describe a situation that didn't happen, and to imagine the result of this situation.
We make the third conditional by using the past perfect after 'if' and then 'would have' and the past participle in the second part of the sentence:
- if + past perfect, ...would + have + past participle
Examples:
- If she had studied, she would have passed the exam (but, really we know she didn't study and so she didn't pass)
- If I hadn't eaten so much, I wouldn't have felt sick (but I did eat a lot, and so I did feel sick).
