These points help learners follow complex conversations, express subtle meaning, and understand formal or fast speech.

1. Present or Future Unreal Conditional (If + past, would/might/could)
   → Common in expressing dreams, hypotheticals, and polite suggestions.

3. Mixed Conditionals
   → Useful in real-life situations that combine past and present conditions.
4. Passive Voice (All tenses)
