  Conditional
  Conditional tenses are used to speculate about what could happen, what might have happened, and what we wish would happen. In English, most sentences using the conditional contain the word if. Many conditional forms in English are used in sentences that include verbs in one of the past tenses. This usage is referred to as "the unreal past" because we use a past tense but we are not actually referring to something that happened in the past. There are five main ways of constructing conditional sentences in English. In all cases, these sentences are made up of an if clause and a main clause. In many negative conditional sentences, there is an equivalent sentence construction using "unless" instead of "if"

  CONFUSE(v.)-1 to make someone feel that they cannot think clearly or do not understand
  2 to think wrongly that a person or thing is someone or something else
  START/BEGIN
  You can use both start and begin for an activity:
  I started playing the piano when I was 8 years old.
  What time does the meeting start?
  He’s beginning to read more advanced books in English.
  We left the park when it began to rain.
  When you turn on a car or vehicle, use “start”:
  I had to call a mechanic because my car wouldn’t start.
  In general, begin is used for more formal and more abstract ideas:
  Scientists are studying how life on earth began.
  World War II began in 1939.
   
  
  END/FINISH
  When something ends, it means it stops:
  My English class ends at 7:30.
  I ended my last relationship because I felt we had nothing in common.
  When something finishes, it means it is completed:
  She finished the test and gave it to the teacher.
  We need to finish painting the house.
