English Grammar - UNLESS & IF NOT - negative conditional

www.engvid.com Students are often told that unless they practice, they won't improve. But if you don't know what 'unless' means or how to use it, you might get the wrong idea. This grammar lesson focuses on the negative conditional and the consequences that follow. I'll teach you when and how to use 'unless', 'if not', 'as long as', and more. Test your understanding of this lesson with the quiz: www.engvid.com/...

Thank you, Adam, for such a comprehensive video! I'd love to ask something: Can I use the second part first, and the first part after the second on different sentences in which I'll use unless or as long as. For example: You won't be able to talk or understand English, as long as you don't learn it / unless you learn it.

[@julialyutenko3480]

Thank you, Adam! I really appreciate what you do, your videos are awesome!

[@papplemanger2]

"at least" is very different. It is a consequence. if you say "at least ..." then it means that the smallest amount of the consequence is what you describe. for example, if the smallest consequence of quitting smoking is feeling better then you can say "If you quit smoking, at least you will feel better." meaning that they will feel better, but also there will be more benefits. Also you can use it to say "That will cost at least $5". That means that it might cost more, but should not cost less.

[@papplemanger2]

"whether" is a flexible condition. for example: "Whether you quit smoking or not is your choice." the "whether" gives the choice. Most often, we will use the "or not" with the word "whether", so we use a positive verb and a negative verb. "I do not know whether or not i will quit smoking." Which means that they do not know if they will quit or will not quit. Also, "I do not know whether i should quit smoking or not." The "or not" can go after the verb or after the word "whether" in all cases.

[@abuh9400]

I really like your speaking Adam, it's clear and the is pace just good

[@augustayarteh7524]

Wow professor Adams that a great explanation to know about those two words. This is my definition for conjunction; which combines the means that a condition has to be met ( something has to be happen) my own examples. for Unless. I will at 4; 30. today unless my paper. work is not done . The condition in my sentence is the work completed. My other example is Unless it stops raining my basement will continue to flood . This is my. examples of Unless I don't want to go further because your examples are very sound. If not for You Tube some of us will not know what is happening in America or other countries.

Almost right. "If you don't keep STUDYING, you won't gain anything." But good job nonetheless! :)

[@anitagupta8592]

Hi Adam this is the best explanation on such a complicated word.. thanks ❤️👌

[@elizabethmedrano7849]

Hi Adam, thanks for this interesting lesson. Let`s see if this is correct: Unless I keep practicing my English, I won't be able to improve it..! It is correct??

[@stasiar2667]

Thank you Adam. I have one question. Can we use "unless" in II and III conditionals? For example: We might not have any delays unless he screwed up with his job. Or: We would not encountered any problems unless he had screwed up. Is it correct?

[@Wall0rio]

Hey Adam, Its name is "zero conditional". If + present + present. Or it could be If + present + imperative.

[@MrBelkz]

Explanation on the video was clear enough for me. Thank you! =)

[@durgarai8986]

Thank you so much. I got it now clearly.

[@jayashridalavi5303]

I must say you are a great guide thanks alot sir 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@engindincer4699]

Dear Adam ,you know or spot always where our weaknesses are in our English studies. As long as you keep doing this ,will be learning good English . Unless you stop doing this ,we won't be learning good English. If you stop searching, where students weaknesses are , and endeavour to correct them. We will not hail you as good teacher. That is the way cookie crumbles . Thank you for being a good teacher.

[@ArtemAB]

Great explanation, but "unless" can be used not only with the future tense.

hello Adam, it could be possible to do a lesson concerning prepositions which must be followed by ING. ...please..?

[@mikhailparshin8659]

Thanks Adam. It is very useful.

[@rodrigueskorn]

All the examples was pretty clear, but I have one question about the word "whether" which was not included here, sometimes it seems to have the same meaning like "if". Is it right? The question is basically because I see "whether" too much. Thanks in advance Mr. Adam, was an excelent lesson.

[@purnachandraraosari5798]

Very good explanation. Thanks
