Conditional sentences: Mixed and Implied
Mixed conditionals are a combination of elements from both the second and third conditionals. These types of conditional sentences involve a present or future unreal condition and a past unreal result, or vice versa. Mixed conditionals are useful for expressing complex relationships between past, present, and future situations.
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.

Could can be used with the indefinite infinitive to express past actions. When using could in this way, it usually indicates ability or possibility in the past.
