Également connu sous: French conditional sentences · phrases avec si · if clauses
Si-clauses are French conditional sentences built with si plus a tense pattern. Real conditions use si + présent followed by futur or présent. Unreal present conditions use si + imparfait followed by conditionnel. Unreal past conditions use si + plus-que-parfait followed by conditionnel passé.
A key rule is that si does not take futur simple or conditionnel in standard conditional clauses. French expresses the condition with present, imparfait, or plus-que-parfait.
Si-clauses are high-value in argument essays and speaking opinions because they let candidates discuss consequences, alternatives, and hypothetical outcomes.
