How do you form the third conditional tense in English?
The third conditional requires us to construct a sentence in two parts.
We make the third conditional by using ‘if,’ the past perfect form of the verb in the first part of the sentence and then ‘would have’ and the past participle the second part of the sentence:
It talks about the past. It’s used to describe a situation that didn’t happen, and to imagine the result of this situation.
I hope that these examples help. If you have questions, comments, or would like to try your own examples, leave a comment on the blog post at https://gonaturalenglish.com/third-conditional
