When, while, as - used to express time

when is used, with simple tenses:

1 When one action occurs at the same time as another or in the span of another:

■When it is wet the buses are crowded.
■When we lived in town we often went to the theatre.
2 When one action follows another:

■When he explained the situation she calmed down.

as is used:

3 When the second action occurs before the first is finished:

■As I walked through the park I remembered about my mother's birthday.
The above sentence implies that I remembered about my mother's birthday before had completed the action of walking thorugh the park; I was probably still in the park.

While I was walking would have the same meaning here, but When I walked would give the impression that the act of walking through the park was complete and he was no longer in the park.

4 For parallel actions:


■The men whistled as she walked past.
5 For parallel development:

■As he listened to the story he grew more and more curious.
■The darker it grew, the colder it became.
■As he worked harder he was getting more and more money for his work.
If we used when here we would lose all idea of simultaneous progression or development.

6 To mean while:

■As he was watching TV his wife was preparing a meal.
However, there is no particular advantage in using as here, and while is safer.
PAST CONTINUOUS tenth grade


DEMONSTRATIVE PRONOUNS






Second Conditional: unreal possibility or dream
The second conditional is like the first conditional. We are still thinking about the future. We are thinking about a particular condition in the future, and the result of this condition. But there is not a real possibility that this condition will happen. For example, you do not have a lottery ticket. Is it possible to win? No! No lottery ticket, no win! But maybe you will buy a lottery ticket in the future. So you can think about winning in the future, like a dream. It's not very real, but it's still possible.

IF condition result
past simple WOULD + base verb
If I won the lottery I would buy a car.

Notice that we are thinking about a future condition. We use the past simple tense to talk about the future condition. We use WOULD + base verb to talk about the future result. The important thing about the second conditional is that there is an unreal possibility that the condition will happen.

Here are some more examples:

IF condition result
past simple WOULD + base verb
If I married Mary I would be happy.
If Ram became rich she would marry him.
If it snowed next July would you be surprised?
If it snowed next July what would you do?
result IF condition
WOULD + base verb past simple
I would be happy if I married Mary.
She would marry Ram if he became rich.
Would you be surprised if it snowed next July?
What would you do if it snowed next July?
