Explication

Mixed conditional adalah kalimat pengandaian yang induk kalimat (main clause) dan anak kalimat terjadi pada kala yang berbedasehinggatense yang yang digunakanpun berbeda.

Contoh:

I am a doctor now (present) because I went to medical school (past).

→ I wouldn't bea doctor nowifIhadn't gone to medical school.

He didn't join the employees for a drink (past) because he is the manager (present).

→ He would have joinedthe employees for a drink if heweren't the manager.

Induk kalimat dari kalimat pengandaian adalah klausa yang menyatakan hasil (result).

Jika pada kalimat fakta result dalam

1. present, maka di kalimat pengandaian menggunakan future in the past (would/could/should + infinitive).
2. past, maka di kalimat pengandaian menggunakan modals of lost opportunity (would/could/should + have + past participle).

Anak kalimat dari kalimat pengandaian adalah klausa yang menyatakan syarat (condition). Klausa ini disebut juga if-clause.

Jika pada kalimat fakta condition dalam

1. present, maka di kalimat pengandaian menggunakan past simple.
2. past, maka di kalimat pengandaian menggunakan past perfect.

Contoh:

Fakta →Iknow Mandarin. (present)

Pengandaian → I wouldn't know Mandarin.

Fakta → I lived in China as a child. (past)

Pengandaian → I hadn't lived in China as a child. (past perfect)

Fakta → I know Mandarin. I lived in China as a child.

Pengandaian → I wouldn't know Mandarin if I hadn't lived in China as a child.

Jika if-clauseditempatkandi awal kalimat, maka kita harus menggunakan tanda koma (,) sebelum main clause.

If I hadn't lived in China, I wouldn't know Mandarin.
