Were is used in imaginary sentence (Question:86534.3)

If any statement is starting with if or any sentence which convey the imaginary meaning then "WE SHOULD PLACE "WERE"."
For Example:-

If I were you .......

Question:

DIRECTIONS: Fill in the blank with the grammatically correct option.

In such conditional sentences, the tense in the 'if' clause is in the past perfect, and the tense in the main clause is the perfect conditional or the perfect continuous conditional.

Eg: 

  • If you had worked harder, you would have passed your exam.
If clause (condition)Main clause (result)
