We often have imagination/expectation in our life that is contrary to
the fact in front of us. For example: If I'm rich I will....., If I get a good
mark I will....If I meet my idol I will....., etc. To express those all, we
can use the following formula if there is a good chance/possibility to
bring them into reality.
Type 1:
IF CLAUSE EXPECTATION
If, simple present -> present future
1. (+)verb1 / v(s/es) (+) will + V1 / be
(-) don't/doesn't V1 (-) won't (Adj, Adv, N)
2. (+) is,am,are (Adj, Adv, N)
(-) is not, am not, are not
i.g:
If I have money, I will treat you meatball today
(Jika aku punya uang, Aku akan mentraktir kamu bakso hari ini)
This sentence shows the fact: "I don't have money, I don't
treat you meatball today"
(kalimat ini menunjukkan kenyataan Aku tidak punya uang
aku tidak mentraktir kamu
bakso hari ini)
Conclusion:
If the fact is in positive form (+) -> if clause is in negative form
i.g:
I get a punishment - > If I don't get a punishment
I am a student -> If I am not a student
or
If the fact is in negative form (-) -> if clause is in positive form
i.g:
I don't have money -> If I have money
She doesn't look at me -> If She looks at me
and for the expectation,
If the fact is in positive form (+) -> Expectation is in negative form
i.g:
He takes me home by bus - > He won't take / will not take me home
by bus
I am angry with him - > I will not be angry with him
or
If the fact is in negative form (-) -> Expectation is in positive form
i.g:
He doesn't take me home by taxi -> He will take me home by taxi
They are not tired soon -> They will be tired soon
