Learners sometimes say *"conditional to"* instead of the correct *"conditional on"* or *"conditional upon"* (e.g., say "The offer is conditional on you passing the exam," not "conditional to you passing"). They may also confuse this general meaning with the grammatical term "conditional" used for sentence types.
