You are amazing as a teacher. Your lesson is helpful. Thanks.
I’m so glad it was helpful! Thank you!
Your teaching is very informative and interesting. Even for me who is learning English. You use words that can be understood by the general public and you use practical examples that are seen in less education. Thank you for your favor. 🌻🌻🌻

Hi, I watched your video about first conditional. In it you said that 'if clause' is in simple present tense. But while passing through some other texts I happened to see the use of present continuous and perfect in 'if claus' .
Eg.
"If you are staying for the weekend, we'll go to the cinema."
"If I've finished writing my paper by tonight, I'll go out with my friends."
Could you give me a clarification please? 😟
Hello! It's not very common to use the present progressive in first conditional (as in your first example). However, when you do, you are using present progressive in a very specific way. You are using present progressive to describe a scheduled future plan.
Your second example uses future perfect (If "I've finished writing my paper by tonight,..."). The future perfect is not used often in English, but it refers to an action that you anticipate being completed by a time in the future.
It is important to remember that first conditional is about the future, and it is about real possibilities for the future.
Typically, we use "if'+ present simple to express the future condition, and then your main clause will use a future tense (such as future simple).
Occasionally, it might be appropriate to use present progressive in your "if-clause" if you are referring to a scheduled future plan.
On rare occasions, it might make sense to use future perfect if you are describing an action that you believe will be completed by a point in the future (and this is your condition).
Thanks for the great questions! I hope this helps.🙂
@@WorldwideSpeak I don’t even have the words to thank you. But... നന്ദി (thanks in our language). I have this much doubts because our language is entirely different from yours. The agglutinative grammar, SOV word order, conjugated verbs etc. I think the cultural difference might also affect sentence creation.
