What is conditional sentence Using as if / as though ???
• Any Questions, Opinions, Suggestions
As if and as though are both used to say what a situation seems like. They can refer to something that we think may be true.
as if / as though
It looks like rain Notice: – Like is followed by a noun object
It looks as if it is going to rainNotice:– As if are followed by a clause
It looks as though it is going to rain Notice:– As though are followed by a clause
It looks like it is going to rain (informal)
Notice:• Like is followed by clause. This use
of like is common in informal English, but is not generally considered appropriate in formal English; as if or as though is preferred.
“True “ statement (fact) Verb form after as if/as though
He is not a child She talked to him as if he were a child
She did not take a shower with her clothes on
When she came in from the rainstorm, she looked as if she had taken a shower with her clothes on
She will be here She spoke as if she wouldn’t be here
Usually the idea following as if/as though is “untrue”. In this case, verb usage is similar to that in
conditional sentences

be different, to be exactly the opposite.
