A ESA tem um “perfil psicológico” muito claro quando o assunto é condicional. Ela adora:
✅ 1) Trocas sutis entre os três tipos de conditional
Quer te pegar no detalhe do tempo verbal.
✅ 2) Fazer você confundir modais (would, could, might)
Especialmente nos mistos e nos irreais.
✅ 3) Confundir uso de “unless”, “even if”, “as long as”
É um dos campeões de erro.
✅ 4) Embutir estruturas formais (Had he known...)
Ela AMA inversão.
✅ 5) Explorar Mixed Conditionals
Past → present e present → past, tudo misturado com orgulho militar.
✅ 6) Tentar te fazer aceitar if + will
A ESA NÃO PERDOA candidato que cai nisso.
➤ RESUMO:
A ESA ama tempo verbal + modal + inversão + negação.
Se tiver essas quatro variáveis juntas, pode ter certeza:
(Item • Exemplo contextual • Pegadinha ESA)
1) If + Simple Present + will (erro clássico da ESA)
• If he trains every day, he will pass the test.
• Pegadinha: ESA tenta colocar “If he will train…”.
2) Zero conditional com imperative
• If you see anything strange, call the sergeant immediately.
• Pegadinha: trocar call por calls.
3) Misturar Second com First Conditional
• If he studied harder, he would improve his score.
• Pegadinha: ESA troca would improve por will improve.
4) Inverter tempos no Third Conditional
• If they had prepared better, they would have succeeded.
• Pegadinha: colocar would succeed ou would had succeeded.
5) Confundir unless com if not
• Unless you hurry, you’ll miss the patrol.
• Pegadinha: colocar Unless you don’t hurry…
6) Misturar if + past simple com could
• If he trained more, he could run faster.
• Pegadinha: ESA bota can no lugar de could.
7) Third conditional com truncated form
• If he’d known the rules, he would’ve acted differently.
• Pegadinha: trocar had known por has known.
8) Inversão com Had (estrutura avançada que a ESA ama colocar)
• Had he known the risks, he would have refused the mission.
• Pegadinha: inverter sem tirar o if: Had he known… if…
9) Mixed conditional (past → present)
• If she had joined earlier, she would be a lieutenant now.
• Pegadinha: trocar would be por would have been.
10) Mixed conditional (present → past)
• If I were stronger, I would have climbed the wall.
• Pegadinha: ESA coloca was no lugar de were.

• Pegadinha: ESA coloca stopped (simple past) depois do imperativo.
12) Conditional com should (formal)
• If you should need assistance, call headquarters.
• Pegadinha: trocar should por would.
13) Condicional com valor “future real” usando present continuous
• If he is leaving tomorrow, I’ll brief him today.
• Pegadinha: ESA coloca If he will leave…
14) Uso errado de might em condicional irreal
• If he trained more, he might pass.
• Pegadinha: ESA troca por may, quebrando o sentido hipotético.
15) Third conditional com verbo modal + have + past participle
• If they had checked the map, they could have avoided getting lost.
• Pegadinha: trocar have avoided por avoided.
16) If only (condicional implícita)
• If only he had listened to the instructor!
• Pegadinha: ESA coloca has listened.
17) Conditional clause com verbo estático
• If it rains, the march will be cancelled.
• Pegadinha: colocar is raining no lugar de rains.
18) Sentences começando com a principal
• You will pass the course if you keep this pace.
• Pegadinha: ESA troca keep por kept (fazendo parecer Second Cond.).
19) Condicional em Reported Speech

• Pegadinha: ESA coloca will stay.
20) Condicional com even if
• Even if it gets dark, they’ll continue the operation.
