Hypotheticals

Hi there! So, hypotheticals are basically like pretend questions. It's like when you play make-believe with your friends and say "what if I was a princess?" or "what if we were flying on a magic carpet?"

But instead of just playing and having fun, adults use hypotheticals to help understand something better or to think about different possibilities. For example, if your mom asks "what if it rains tomorrow?" it helps her decide whether or not to plan a picnic or an outdoor activity.

So when people talk about hypotheticals, they're just imagining different scenarios or situations and thinking about what could happen if those things were true. It's like using your brain to pretend, and it can help you be better prepared for the future!
