The conditional mood
The Conditional Mood denotes an unreal action the unreality of which is due to the absence of necessary conditions. The Conditional Mood is formed with the help of the auxiliary verb should (would). The Conditional Mood has two forms:
-
Non-perfect
Perfect
I would come
He (she, it) would come
We would come
You would come
They would come
I would have come
He (she, it) would have come
We would have come
You would have come
They would have come
The Non-perfect form of the Conditional Mood is used to refer the action to the present or the future. It expresses simultaneousness.
E.g. I’m sure he would never fail you, he’s quite reliable.
The Perfect form expresses priority, so it is used to refer the action to the past.
E.g. She would have known what to do in such a situation.
