Well how about that?

Well how about that? Well, I never. Well, what do you know? Well, well, well. Well, I'll be darned! Well who'd have thought it? Well if it isn't my old friend Archibald Potterbottle? Well what do you call that? Well it's about time! Well, I'll think about it. Well I've only got a minute. Well, we'll see. Well it's a bit of an inconvenience. Well there you go. Well how goes it?

"She was in the garden, and wandered off.. when I found her she was on the edge, and before I could stop her, she fell!" We ran to the well, and I leant forward. I couldn't see very well because it was so dark, but I could hear a small sound below.  Using the rope which was tied to the water bucket, I climbed down to the bottom.

There I found the baby and she seemed to be unharmed, but she was  covered in mud.  I took her carefully in my arms and climbed back up. "Look!" explained, "Your baby is safe and well. She fell into soft mud, which broke her fall - now she just needs a bath!" Holding her baby tight, the relieved mother replied,"Well I...

If I had a bell, I'd ring it in the morning, I'd ring it in the evening, All over this land I'd ring out danger, I'd ring out a warning I'd ring out love between my brothers and my sisters, All over this land.

She wasn't given the correct directions and she didn't find her way. She might have finished the exam if she’d had more time. She didn't finish the exam and she didn't have more time. In third conditional sentences, the structure is usually if + past perfect and would + perfect infinitive (e.g. have done) . It’s not important which clause comes first. Notice that other modal verbs can be used instead of ‘ wo...
