Explanation:
Conditional: If.
Affirmative: Yes.

yes or if


Explanation:
It depends on how it is used in the sentence.

Si, voy a ir al cine. = Yes, I am going to the movies.

Si yo fuera usted, no compraría esos zapatos = If I were you, I would buy those shoes.

So choose according to the context you have. Hope this helps.
