- The zero conditional is a type of conditional used to express a cause-effect relationship in facts that are always true (scientific facts, particular facts, etc.) or to give instructions.
- The structure of the zero conditionalConditionals are sentences composed of two phrases. The zero conditional has the following structure:If + subject + present simple, subject + present simple.
- The order of the two sentences that make up the structure of the conditional can be changed. If we start with the condition (If), we separate them with a comma. If we start with the sentence that expresses the result, there is no need to put the comma.let's see some examples

- If I eat peanuts, I get ill.If I eat peanuts, I get sick.Although getting sick after eating peanuts is not a universal truth, for a certain group of people (allergic) it is true that whenever they eat peanuts it will cause this same result.
- In addition to true facts, the zero conditional can also be used to give instructions. In this case we will use an imperative to express the instruction or warning. Example:
- If you feel sick, go to the doctor.Si te encuentras mal, ve al médico.Don't open the door if someone knocks.No abras la puerta si alguien llama.
