CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

A. Background
English is a language that must be learned, because English is the
international language. As time, presumably the English language must be
learned. In English a lot of things to be learned, one of which Conditional
Sentence. Conditional sentence or sentence modality is one of disclosure in
English to express things that are expected or supposed to happen.

This supposition sentence itself has a formula If ... + Subject + will ..., so this
time we will learn one type of conditional senteses namely Unless. UNLESS
words have the same meaning as if ... not. As if, UNLESS followed by the
present tense, past tense or past perfect. Unless used as a substitute if + not in
any type of sentence modality.

The first form of sentence modality called conditional sentence type 1

(sentence modality of the first kind). In type 1 conditional sentence, the
possibility of hope or supposition of the subject is likely to occur because of the
form of time (tenses) to the two clauses (main clause and a subordinate clause).
Clause contained in the conditional sentence would be used of UNLESS.

CONCEPTS AND THEORY

A. Use Unless
UNLESS usage is often used in conversation or dialogue everyday. Unless is a
subordinating conjunction. Here's an explanation UNLESS us all to better understand
how to use the word in everyday conversation.
 Unless express a condition
Example :
You won’t get the high grade unless you study hard. (You will get the
high grade only if you study hard.)
 UNLESS we use for a particular action or situation will occur only if
other specific actions that happened before.
Example :
Don’t smoke unless your parents allows you to. (Smoke only if your
parents allows you to do it)
Other examples :
 He’s not going to that event unless his girlfriend comes too.
 I won’t get that chance unless you tell me first
 Unless I’m mistaken, Laura’s office is the second on the left.

UNLESS words have the same meaning as if ... not. As if, UNLESS followed
by the present tense, past tense or past perfect. Unless used as a substitute if +
not in any type of sentence modality (conditional sentences) :
Type 1 (Unless + Present)
Example :
1. I will be crazy unless you stop talking about all those problems
2. She cannot believe you unless you tell her all the truth that you have.
3. He will be so hungry unless you give him a food

 Type 2 (Unless + Past Tense)
Axample :

1. He would go unless he wasn’t sick

2. She could do her homework unless you didn’t disturb

3. They would be here on time unless they didn’t trap at the traffic jam.

Type 3 (Unless + Past Perfect)

Axample :

1. My father would not have dealt you unless you had met his secretary.

2. She would have had a car unless you had not given her money.

B. Difference Unless And If

Unless here serves replace if, but its meaning is reversibility. If if pales, then
UNLESS meaning unless. So, when UNLESS accompanied by a negative sentence,
then change into a positive sentence if you want to replace it with the if. Vice versa.

Example :

I cannot clean the house unless you go

 CHAPTER THREE
CLOSING
A. Concluction

Conditional sentence with UNLESS clause is conditional sentence formats that do

not use if such in general and replaced with UNLESS. If interpreted the notion
UNLESS itself "if ... not" .

Format clause conditional sentence with UNLESS divided into three, namely:
1. Type (Unless + Present).
2. Type (Unless + Past Tense)
3. Type (Unless + Past Perfect)

B. Sugesstion

From the results of this paper, the authors hope to friends or co-ed students to read
more in the other books in order to gain a broad knowledge of "Unless". Because the
authors felt that this paper is far from perfect and there are still many shortcomings in
terms of both writing and discussion. Therefore, criticism and constructive suggestions
very authors expect. Hopefully this paper can be useful for everything.
