Conditional (If) Clauses Type 3 contd...

 Conditional Clauses without using "If''.
 ఇంతకు ముందు మనం "If" క్లాజుల్ని "Conditional Clauses" అని ఎందుకు అంటామో తెలుసుకున్నాం . If లేకుండా కూడా వాటిని చెప్పవచ్చు కాబట్టి అలా అనడం బాగుంటుంది.. If you recall, in the very beginning we said that it is possible to construct Conditional Clauses without using "if'' and therefore it would be better to use the term Conditional Clauses than "If Clauses".
 Let's see how we can do that. అలా ఎలా ఉపయోగించాలో ఇప్పుడు తెలుసుకొందాం.
 
 The construction of such clauses is almost the same except that we do not use 'if'.
