"is tried" - Present tense is incorrect for past conditional$ "was tried" - Simple past doesn't fit this conditional structure $"had tried" - Correct for past unreal conditionals (third conditional)

Here are the conditional structures with their basic forms: Zero Conditional: If + present simple, present simple "If you heat ice, it melts" First Conditional: If + present simple, will + verb "If you study hard, you will pass" Second Conditional: If + past simple, would + verb "If I had money, I would travel" Third Conditional: If + past perfect, would have + past participle "If I had studied, I would have passed"
