CHAPTER

The First Conditional in an Options Appraisal

When you've got an options appraisal or an options review, you can use the first conditional to talk about the different options. You don't have to just use will, we can also use might which is really even better actually in this type of situation because we're saying look if we do this, this might happen or this may happen. I'm obsessed with might all the time and I always tell my students and I've said it millions of times on social media that people need to use the mode of where might, more. It's very much British English to use it a lot. If you love the podcast, make sure that you subscribe, tell a colleague or a friend about it.
