English Conditional Sentences

Choose the correct sentence.

A Had I known the truth, I would have reacted differently.

B If had I known the truth, I would have reacted differently.

C Had I known the truth, I would react differently.

D Having known the truth, I would have reacted differently — had.

"Had I known..." is the correct inverted form of "If I had known...," paired correctly with "would have reacted" for the unreal past result.

"Had" at the start of a sentence (without "if") signals an inverted third conditional.
