Please tell me about tence(will, would, would have etc.) in if sentences.
"Look at these, Naomi.
There are lovely wellingtons here.
Yesterday, you said you wanted to get them, didn't you?"
"Yes, mum.
Hmm...but they are red and black.
I want pink ones.
If they were pink, I would buy them..."
"I went to a shoe shop to buy wellingtons yesterday.
But sadly they only had red and black ones.
If they had been pink, I would have bought them."
Could you please correct my if sentences?
Only if parts are OK.
Thank you.
