The Zero Conditional is a type of conditional sentence that is used to express general truths, facts, or scientific principles.
IF (Conditional) Sentences
Conditional sentences, also known as if sentences, express a relationship between different events or situations. These sentences are divided into different types based on the likelihood or certainty of the condition being fulfilled. Conditional sentences play a crucial role in expressing possibilities, hypothetical situations, and cause-and-effect relationships. There are four main types of conditional sentences: zero conditional, first conditional, second conditional, and third conditional.
Direct (Quoted) and Indirect (Reported) Speech
Reported speech, also known as indirect speech, is a way of expressing what someone else has said without quoting their exact words. When using reported speech, you convey the meaning or content of someone's statement rather than reproducing their words verbatim
