Conditionals in English make the language supremely inventive and creative. In the previous High English quiz on grammar we looked at probable conditionals where the likelihood of something happening was conditional on something being achieved or happening. That is to say, that an event or action follows another event or is dependent on another event or action. In this quiz we look at another aspect of conditionals where an outcome is unreal or hypothetical.
