The first conditional is a sentence structure used to talk about possible situations and their results in the future. It is made up of an 'if' clause (condition) and a main clause (result). The 'if' clause usually contains the present simple verb tense, and the main clause usually contains the future simple verb tense. The first conditional is used to talk about real possibilities in the future. It is not used to talk about the future in general, wishes, or imaginary situations.

The first known use of a conditional clause was in Ancient Greek, over 2500 years ago. In English, the phrase 'if only' is used to express a wish for a different outcome than what has happened. In some languages, such as Spanish, the word 'si' can be used in a conditional clause to mean either 'if' or 'yes'.
