Zero Conditional

ZERO CONDITIONAL


The "zero conditional" is used when the time referred to is now or always and the situation is real and possible. This type of conditional is usually used to talk about general facts. The verb tense of both propositions is the "simple present". In conditional type 0 sentences, the term "if" can usually be replaced by "when" without changing the meaning.
