Why things happenNo one is turned away because of a lack of means.

Condition (i.e. if this happens, then that happens.)Leslie had left no letter for me to read in the event of his death.
Concession (i.e. even if this happens, still that happens.)Despite all their efforts, the dishwasher is still broken.
Degree (i.e. answering the question ‘how much?’)I wouldn’t worry at all.
