Hypothetical situations with Past Simple
6/21Recursos
Hablar de situaciones imaginarias, situaciones opuestas a la realidad, hacer una observación sobre algo que está sucediendo para expresar tus pensamientos o hacer comparaciones, son solo algunas de las situaciones en donde podrás hablar de forma hipotética en el pasado.
Situaciones hipotéticas con pasado simple
Para hablar de forma hipotética, puedes emplear el vocabulario “as if” o “as though”, siendo el primero más común de utilizar. Ambas expresiones tienen significados muy similares y funcionan como conjunciones para conectar dos cláusulas y hablar de situaciones imaginarias.
Veamos algunos ejemplos:
- It looked as though the gorilla was lost in thought.
- He was sitting as if he had a grand plan.
- She answered the question as if she practiced math a lot.
- She was resting as though she finished all the work.
Exprésate con este vocabulario para hablar del pasado en una forma hipotética, de hechos que no ocurrieron en realidad o comparar situaciones en las que aparentan ser otra cosa.

Thanks to the way the teacher explains, I can clarify my doubts and learn more about the subject.
Same topic as in the previous course. Browsing some websites, I learned the difference between "as though" and "as if". Besides the formality level...
"As if" is more used to talk about imaginary or unreal situations, similar to a metaphor. Example: "He is sleeping as if he was going to hibernate"
"As though" is more used when trying to express the reason for the first clause. Example: "He is sleeping as if he hasn't slept for a long time"

Nah I’m kidding, I’m too bad at boxing 😆

SUMMARY:
HYPOTHETICAL SITUATIONS with PAST SIMPLE. Similar SECOND and THIRD CONDITIONAL (other forms to express hypothetical situations).
Hypothetical situations are situations that are IMAGINARY or OPPOSITE to what REALLY happened in the past or something that will PROBABLY NEVER happen in the future.
AS IF / AS THOUGH (with PAST SIMPLE) are used to make comparisons and talk about hypothetical situations. There 's no regret. There’s no adding myself to the situation. This is just what I see and what comes to my mind when I see it. For example: It looked as though the gorilla was lost in thought.
AS IF is more common and informal than AS THOUGH. It isn’t recommended to replace AS IF or AS THOUGH for LIKE all time. Because LIKE is more informal than these two (informal conversation).
