This sentence is an example of the third conditional, which is used to talk about hypothetical past situations and their consequences.

Use the situations below to write sentences using the 3rd conditional. You were born in Mexico. You learned to speak Spanish. What would have happened if you had been born in another country?

Explanation
The answer correctly uses the third conditional to speculate about a hypothetical situation. It states that if the person had been born in a different country, they would have learned to speak a different language. This is because language acquisition is influenced by the environment and culture of the country one is born in. Therefore, being born in a different country would have likely resulted in learning a different language.
