GRAMMAR COMMENT[1. p. 136]

If+ past simple, would/wouldn’t +infinitive

The second conditional is used to talk about a present situation which is impossible: a hypothetical situation: to talk about future event that is unlikely to happen.

Compare:

I don’t have much money, so I can’t buy a bigger house (real situation).

If I had more money, I’d buy a bigger house (hypothetical/imaginary situation).

Use second conditionals beginning If I were you, I’d buy …..to give advice. Here you can’t use If I was you

You can also use would/wouldn’t infinitive (without an if clause) when you talk about imaginary situation.
