counter-factual (adj./n.)

A term used in GRAMMAR and SEMANTICS to refer to a type of CONDITIONAL SENTENCE which refers to a totally hypothetical situation, such as If she had taken the train, she would have arrived on time. Counter-factual or ‘unreal’ statements (‘counter-factuals’) are usually contrasted with such ‘real’ conditional statements as If she took the train, she will have arrived on time. Both types of sentence can be discussed with reference to the notion of FACTIVITY.
