Grammar rule

Grammar from units 16–18

Unit	Grammar	Example
16	contrast and purpose: although, despite, in order to, so that	Although he sounded upset, something felt wrong. I said I would call back so that I would have time to think.
17	third conditional: if + had + past participle, would have + past participle	If I hadn't noticed that word, I would have lost a lot of money.
18	should have / shouldn't have + past participle	She should have called her family first.

Three things to watch: despite + a noun or -ing (not despite + a clause), had + past participle in the if part (not if I would have), and should have + past participle (never should of or should had).
