Conditional sentence type 1 is used to express something which possibly happens in the future if the condition is fulfilled. The simple present is used in the “If clause”, and the present future is used in the main clause. The pattern is as follows:
If + S + V (Simple Present tense) +…. , S + Will + V1 ….

Examples:
– If I have a lot of money, I will buy a new car.
(kalau saya punya banyak uang, saya akan membeli mobil baru)
