Conditional Sentences

Conditional Sentence
Conditional Sentence (=Kalimat pengandaian) adalah kalimat yang digunakan untuk menyatakan
sesuatu yang mungkin terjadi atau mungkin tidak terjadi seperti yang diharapkan.
Conditional sentence terdiri dari dua klausa, yaitu:
Main Clause (Induk Kalimat) dan IF Clause.
Letak main clause bisa di depan maupun di belakang IF Clause. Perbedaan letak ini tidak
mempengaruhi arti.
Ada beberapa tipe Conditional Sentence, yaitu:
 Type I: Future Conditional
 Type II: Present Conditional
 Type III: Past Conditional

Pengertian Conditional Sentence

Conditional Sentence adalah kalimat bersyarat atau sering juga disebut dengan kalimat
pengandaian
. Kalimat Pengandaian maksudnya kalimat yang digunakan untuk mengandai-andai akan suatu
kegiatan atau tindakan apabila syaratnya terpenuhi. Namun, pengandaiannya dapat saja terjadi
atau tidak dapat terjadi tergantung dari syarat yang diajukannya.
Dalam Bahasa Inggris terdapat tiga jenis Pengandaian, yaitu:
Probable Condition
Improbable Condition
Impossible Condition
1. PROBABLE CONDITION
Probable Condition sering juga disebut dengan “ Present Real Conditional ” atau “ Tipe I ” sebab
suatu peristiwa mungkin saja akan terjadi jika syaratnya terpenuhi. Tipe ini menjelaskan bahwa
suatu kegiatan atau aktivitas di masa yang akan datang akan terlaksana jika persyaratannya
dipenuhi.
Tipe I ini dibagi lagi atas:
a. Pengandaian di masa yang akan datang
Pola Kalimat:
If Kalimat Present Simple Tense, Kalimat Future Simple Tense, Atau
Kalimat Future Simple Tense if Kalimat Present Simple Tense
Contoh:
If I have a lot of money, I’ll buy a car.
(Jika aku punya banyak uang, saya akan membeli sebuah mobil)
If he runs quickly, he will get there soon.
(Jika dia berlari dengan cepat, maka dia akan sampai disana segera)
I will visit them if I have enough time.
(Saya akan mengunjungi mereka jika saya punya waktu)
b. Kebenaran Umum/Kebiasaan Sehari-hari
Jenis ini biasanya disebut dengan “ Zero Conditional “. Tipe ini berfungsi untuk memberikan
penjelasan tentang suatu kegiatan yang pasti akan terjadi jika syaratnya terpenuhi.
Pola Kalimat:
When Kalimat Present Simple Tense, Kalimat Present Tense, Atau
Kalimat Present Tense when Kalimat Present Simple Tense
Contoh:
When ice is heated, it melts.
(Ketika es dipanaskan, maka es itu akan meleleh)
Susan walks to school when she has enough time.
(Susan berjalan kaki ke sekolah ketika dia memiliki banyak waktu)
When water is frozen, it freezes.
(Ketika air dibekukan, maka air pasti akan membeku)
c. Kalimat Perintah
Pola Kalimat:
If Kalimat Present Simple Tense, Kalimat Perintah, Atau
Kalimat Perintah if Kalimat Present Simple Tense
Contoh:
If you go to the Post Office, please mail this letter.
(Jika kamu pergi ke Kantor Pos, tolong poskan surat ini)
Don’t come here if you can’t.
(Jangan datang kemari jika kamu tidak bisa)
Please call me if Ed phones me.
(Tolong panggil saya jika Edi menelpon saya)
CATATAN:
“if” dan “when” digunakan dalam Real Conditional . “if” digunakan untuk menjelaskan tentang
sesuatu yang jarang terjadi, sedangkan “when” digunakan untuk menjelaskan tentang kejadian
yang sudah biasa atau sering terjadi.
MODALS LAINNYA
Modal Auxiliary lainnya yang dapat digunakan pada Tipe Conditional ini adalah can, shall, dan
may.
Contoh:
If I bring the book, you can borrow it.
(Jika saya membawa buku itu, kamu boleh meminjamnya)
You shall make the report if you face the problem.
(Kamu harus membuat laporan jika ada masalah)
If the teacher does not come, you may go home.
(Jika gurunya tidak datang, kalian boleh pulang)
2. IMPROBABLE CONDITION
Improbable Condition sering juga disebut dengan “ Present Unreal Conditonal ” atau “ Tipe II “.
Pengandaian ini digunakan untuk menjelaskan bahwa suatu pekerjaan atau kegiatan pada
saat ini
mungkin akan dilakukan jika persyaratannya dipenuhi.
Pola Kalimat:
If Kalimat Past Simple Tense, Kalimat Past Future Simple Tense, ATAU
Kalimat Past Future Simple Tense if Kalimat Past Simple Tense
Contoh:
He would come if you invited him.
(Dia akan datang jika kamu mengundangnya)
What would you do if She came here?
(Apa yang akan kamu lakukan jika dia datang kemari?)
She would help you if you told her the truth.
(Dia akan menolongmu jika kamu menceritakan kebenarannya)
WERE
Pada pengandaian Tipe ini, semua subjek menggunakan “were”.
Contoh:
If I were a bird, I would fly in the sky.
(Jika saya seekor burung, saya akan terbang di angkasa)
I would forgive him If I were you.
(Saya akan memaafkannya jika saya jadi kamu)
She said that she would stay at home if she were me.
(Dia berkata bahwa dia akan tetap berada di rumah jika dia menjadi saya)
PENGHILANGAN IF
Pada tipe ini, kata “ if ” dapat kita hilangkan. Dan sebagai penggantinya, kita letakkan “ were ”
atau “
should ” di awal kalimat.
Contoh:
Should I invite her, she might be here.
(Jika saya mengundangnya, dia mungkin ada di sini)
Were I not busy, I would accompany you.
(Seandainya saya tidak sibuk, saya akan menemanimu)
Were she at home, they would visit her.
(Seandainya dia ada di rumah, maka mereka akan mengunjunginya)
CATATAN:
Pada tipe ini kita tidak menggunakan “ when ” karena karena kita sedang membicarakan sesuatu
yang tidak nyata atau hanya sebatas imajenasi belaka. “When” tidak bisa digunakan.
Contoh:
I would buy that computer when it were cheaper. SALAH
(Saya akan membeli komputer itu ketika harganya lebih murah)
I would buy that computer if it were cheaper. BENAR
(Saya akan membeli komputer itu jika harganya lebih murah)
MODALS LAINNYA
Modal Auxiliary lainnya yang dapat digunakan adalah could, might dan should pada tipe
Conditional ini.
Contoh:
If I brought the book, you could borrow it.

You should make the report if you faced the problem.
(Kamu harus membuat laporan jika ada masalah)
If the teacher did not come, you might go home.
(Jika gurunya tidak datang, kalian boleh pulang)
3. IMPOSSIBLE CONDITIONAL
Impossible Conditional atau sering disebut dengan “Past Unreal Conditional ” atau “Tipe III” ini
menyatakan suatu pengandaian yang tidak mungkin lagi akan terjadi sebab kejadiannya sudah
berlalu. Tipe ini biasanya berisikan penyesalan akan apa yang telah terjadi dimasa lampau.
Pola Kalimat:
If Kalimat Past Perfect Tense, Kalimat Past Perfect Tense, ATAU
Kalimat Past Perfect Tense if Kalimat Past Perfect Tense
Contoh:
If we had known you were there last year, we would have written you a letter.
(Kalau kami tahu kamu ada disana tahun lalu, kami akan menyuratimu)
He could have come here if you had invited him yesterday.
(Dia akan datang jika kamu telah mengundangnya kemarin)
They might have employed me if I had had work experience.
(Mereka mungkin akan mempekerjakan saya jika saya punya pengalaman)
PENGHILANGAN IF
Pada tipe ini, kita juga bisa menghilangkan “ if ” dengan cara meletakkan “ had ” di awal kalimat.
Contoh:
Had I had enough money, I would have given her a present.
(Jika saya punya uang, saya pasti telah memberinya hadiah)
Had he had studied hard, he could have passed the exam.
(Seandainya dia giat belajat, dia bisa lulus ujian)

Tentang Wish Sentences

 Wish Sentences adalah kalimat-kalimat yang menggunakan kata kerja wish. Arti dari kalimat
yang menggunakan wish adalah mengharapkan terjadinya sesuatu yang sekarang tidak
terjadi atau mungkin tidak akan terjadi. Kalimat tersebut bertolak belakang dengan
kenyataan yang ada.

Contoh:

The truth Wish Sentences

a. The present He is not here. I wish he were here

They don’t work abroad I wish they worked abroad

b. The Future She will confess I wish she wouldn’t confess

They didn’t kill the elephant I wish they were going to sell it

c. The past They didn’t kill the elephant I wish they had killed the elephant

He died I wish he hadn’t died

Keterangan:

1. Kata kerja yang digunakan di dalam subordinate clause pada wish sentences harus dalam
bentuk the past (lampau). Bentuk the past ini bukan menunjukan kejadian yang terjadi di
masa lampau tetapi menunjukan suatu situasi atau keadaan yang bertolak belakang dengan
kenyataan.

2. Untuk kejadian yang terjadi di masa lampau tetapi bertolak belakang dengan kenyataan, kita
menggunakan the past perfect tense (c).

3. Dalam kalimat wish ini, bentuk kata kerja dari be adalah were atau was, Pemakaian was
tidak formal dan biasanya dalam bahasa lisan.

Contoh:

I wish I were not married atau I wish I was not married

4. Jika sesuatu diharapkan masih bisa berubah menjadi kenyataan, jangan gunakan wish
sentences, tetapi gunakan kata kerja hope.

Contoh:
· She hopes that you will come

· I hope that the rain will stop soon.

5. Wish yang digunakan dalam the modal auxiliary verbs ‘would’, could, might dapat mempunyai
arti mengharapkan susuatu menjadi kenyataan (yang masih dapt terwujud) di masa
sekarang atau di masa yang akan datang.

Contoh:

· I wish the boss would leave early today

(I want the boss to leave early today)

· I wish the weather would be better

(I want the weather to be better)

· She wishes John to come back

(She wants John to come back)

PERBEDAAN WISH DAN HOPE

Wish dan Hope dipercaya merupakan dua kata yang mempunyai arti sama. Padahal keduanya
berbeda pada konteks.

HOPE

Berbeda dengan wish, hope merupakan harapan yang bisa diwujudkan dan sangat mungkin
terjadi.

Contohnya:
I hope we can still be friends.

Padanan kata I hope adalah I can menjadi I hope … I can …

WISH

Adalah harapan yang sulit diwujudkan bahkan bisa dibilang mustahil.

Contohnya:

I wish I can fly.

Padanan kata I wish adalah I could menjadi I wish…I could…

*Could di sini bukan dalam bentuk lampau tetapi lebih menyatakan sesuatu yang tidak nyata
atau tidak serupa.

Penggunaan " hope " & " wish "

Pasti kita pernah mendapat ucapan saat kita ulang tahun ataupun kita mengucapkan itu kepada
orang lain. Kata yang kita pakai buat mengucapakan ucapan itu pun biasanya di sertai dengan
menyertakan harapan seperti " wish u all the best ", " wish u luck ", " wish u will happy" dan
sebagainya. Tapi tahukah kalian pemilihan kata yang kita gunakan untuk memberikan selamat,
jika itu tidak tepat malah bisa menjadi hal yang sebaliknya?
kita semua tahu kata " Wish " dan " Hope " dalam bahasa indonesia mempunyai arti yang sama
yaitu "semoga", tapi ternyata makna dalam kata itu benar2 jauh berbeda (lhoh kok bisa?). ini nih
penjelasannya..
Setelah membahas tentang " wish " dan " Hope " terkuak sudahlah rahasia diantara kata itu.
Wish setelah di kaji ulang dan di teliti lalu di cermati adalah kata yang berarti semoga, akan
tetapi harapan yang mengikuti kata - kata ini, sudah pasti tidak akan terjadi. Coba baca novel2
berbahasa inggris lalu cermati pengharapan yang menggunakan kata '' wish " apakah di akhir
cerita bakal terwujud harapan itu? nah lo.. kalo kalian ngucapin " wish u all the best " brarti.......

sedangkan kata " Hope " yang juga berarti semoga, akan tetapi harapan yang mengikuti kata ini
kemungkinan besar akan terwujud, sebagai buktinya ya kita cermati lagi aja novel2 berbahasa
inggris (lagi) hohoho

mendoakan hal yang sebaliknya....

Verb “hope” digunakan untuk membicarakan bahwa suatu kondisi atau situasi
memiliki kemungkinan terjadi di masa depan.
Hope dapat diikuti infinitive (to+verb) atau that-clause (noun clause). Kata kerja ini
digunakan bersama infinitiveuntuk menyatakan harapan dan niat untuk melakukan
sesuatu di masa depan jika memungkinkan dapat dilakukan.
Adapun hope diikuti that-clause ketika ada subject baru yang diperkenalkan (subject

clause tersebut dapat dihilangkan, sehingga hanya menyisakan subject dan predicate-
nya (Lihat: Word Order dan Reduksi Noun Clause).

Soal Expressing Wishes

1. Penggunaan Wish/hope dalam conditional sentences

Verb wish dan hope sama-sama berarti berharap, tetapi penggunaannya dalam kalimat sangat
berbeda. Hope digunakan untuk mengekspresikan sesuatu yang mungkin terjadi atau akan mungkin terjadi.
Sebaliknya, wishdigunakan untuk menyatakan sesuatu yang pasti tidak terjadi atau tidak akan mungkin
terjadi. Hope dapat diikuti oleh verb dalam sembarang tensis; wishtidak dapat diikuti oleh verb dalam simple
present tense atau modal auxiliary simple present tense.
Perhatikan perbedaan penggunaan wish dan hope pada contoh-contoh di bawah ini:

1. We hope that they can come. (kita berharap bahwa mereka bisa datang). Dalam kalimat ini subject we tidak
tahu apakah they bisa datang atau tidak. Tetapi, ada kemungkinan bahwa they bisa datang.
2. We wish that they could come. (kita berharap bahwa mereka bisa datang). Di sini, we sudah tahu
bahwa they tidak bisa datang. Faktanya adalah: they can’t come.
3. I hope that they came yesterday. (saya berharap kamu datang kemarin). Di sini, I tidak tahu
apakah they datang atau tidak kemarin.
4. I wish that they had come yesterday. (saya berharap bahwa mereka datang kemarin). Di sini, I sudah tahu
bahwa they didn’t come yesterday. Faktanya adalah: they didn’t come yesterday.

Jadi, clause yang mengikuti wish clause pada prinsipnya adalah unreal conditional.
Penggunaan wish dalam unreal conditionals ada 3, yaitu: future wish, present wish, dan past wish.
 a. Future wish

S + could + verb1
S + wish + (that) + S + would +verb1
S + were + verb-ing
Note: Penggunaan relative pronoun “that” adalah optional (bisa digunakan, bisa juga tidak):
Contoh:

1. I wish my friend would visit me this afternoon. (Saya berharap teman saya akan mengunjungi saya sore ini).
Faktanya: my friend will not come this afternoon.
2. They wish that you could come to the party tonight. (Mereka berharap bahwa kamu bisa datang sebentar
malam). Faktanya: you can’t come.
3. Bobby wishes he were coming with Angelia. (Bobby berharap dia datang dengan Angelia). Faktanya: Bobby
is not coming with Angelia.

b. Present wish

Contoh:

1. I wish I were rich. (Saya berharap saya kaya). Faktanya adalah: I am not rich.
2. I wish I had enough time to finish my work. (Saya berharap saya punya cukup waktu untuk menyelesaikan
pekerjaan saya). Faktanya: I don’t have enough time to finish my work.
