Summary/Abstract: In this paper, a specific type of conditional clause is examined – one in which an identificational relationship is established between the protasis and the apodosis. This means that the protasis provides a definition or explanation of a given concept, while the apodosis identifies that concept. Consequently, the predicate of the apodosis is typically of a copular or semi-copular type, with its lexical core consisting of a specific term. Such sentences appear primarily in the scientific functional style, and therefore various textbooks, monographs, and Wikipedia were used as the corpus for this study.
