(both clauses)? (F) Affirmative form:
- If + Subject + Present simple, Subject + will + infinitive without to
- Subject + will + infinitive without to If + Subject + Present simple
(the if clause can come first of second in the sentence. The meaning is the same.)
Example:
- If the weather is good, we will go to the beach.
- We will go to the beach if the weather is good.

pronunciation, including sentence stress and In affirmative form the subject and will are usually contracted:
intonation? (P) I’ll, you’ll, we’ll, they’ll, etc.
(Think only about how the model sentence
would normally be said.)

won’t Reminder (Present Simple): In negative form (in the condition clause) the
auxiliary verbs do/does and not are usually contracted: don’t, doesn’t.
STRESS
Affirmative:
The stress is on the main verb of the sentence and any content words following the
verb: If you study hard, you will pass the exam.
If the weather is good, we will go to the beach.
Note: Although “will” is a weak form, sometimes, when we are sure that the result is
likely or not likely to happen, we can stress it.
If the weather is good, I will go to the beach.
Negative: Auxiliary will + not carries stress and any content words following the
verb. If you don’t study hard, you won’t pass the exam.
