Symptoms + should + zero conditional

Symptoms: I have a headache / a fever / a sore throat. Advice: You should rest. You shouldn't… Zero conditional: If you have a fever, you feel hot.

Problem	Advice
I have a headache.	You should drink water and rest.
I have a sore throat.	You shouldn't drink cold drinks.
I feel tired.	You should sleep eight hours.
Fact	If you don't sleep, you feel tired.

My back hurts. I should do some exercise.
If you have a fever, you should see a doctor.
You shouldn't stay in the sun for hours.

En español

«Should» = debería (consejo). Condicional cero (hechos generales): «If + presente, presente». Solo practicamos síntomas comunes; no compartas datos médicos reales.

Your AI assistants: SofIA

Recommended for this lesson: SofIA Léxica, about symptoms, should / shouldn't and the zero conditional. SofIA asks your name, your career and your lesson, then helps you step by step. It explains, gives hints and helps you create your own mini-lesson, flashcards or practice. It never does graded work for you.

Available: SofIA Gramatical · SofIA Léxica · SofIA Fonética · SofIA Comunicativa · SofIA Profesional · SofIA Cultural.
