💋 If only you had studied harder...
We’ve spent the last six units living in alternative realities. You’ve fantasized about finding a sugar daddy, deeply regretted terrible Tinder dates, complained about your partner's pet peeves, and whispered the juiciest scandals into your mates' ears using non-defining relative clauses.
Now, it's time to face the music. Welcome to the Module 4 Gauntlet. Get these right, and you're ready for our final module. Get them wrong, and you'll be living with the regret forever.

2. The Grammar Gauntlet: Module 4
The conditionals are unforgiving. Choose wisely.
1. First vs. Second Conditional (Unit 19): "I am completely broke right now. But if I..."
"rich, I would buy a boat."
2. Third Conditional (Unit 20): "The date was a disaster. If I had known he was so boring, I..."
"out with him."
3. Wishes (Unit 21): "He never texts me back on time. It does my head in! I wish he..."
"faster."
4. Mixed Conditionals (Unit 22): "I drank so much tequila last night. If I hadn't done that, I..."
"this massive headache right now."
5. Defining Relative Clauses (Unit 23): "I'm trying to avoid the guy..."
"drink I accidentally spilled earlier."
6. Non-Defining Relative Clauses (Unit 24): "My ex-boyfriend,..."
"now lives in London, texted me at 2 AM."
3. Speaking Practice: The Ultimate "What If?" ☕
Grab your language partner and rewrite history.
- Tell your partner about a massive dating or life mistake using the Third Conditional. (e.g., "If I hadn't swiped right...")
- What is a habit your best friend has that you find extremely annoying? (e.g., "I wish they would stop...")
- Gossip about someone you know (or a celebrity) using a Non-Defining Relative Clause to insert the juiciest detail. (e.g., "Dave, who is secretly broke, bought a Rolex.")
