1. It is okay for you to move and laugh now.

2. It is okay if you move and laugh now.
-------------------------
In sentence 1, 'It' refers to 'for you to move and laugh now'.
Is that right? What about in #2? Does 'It' refer to 'if you move and laugh now'? Or is 'it' the impersonal subject which means the situation or circumstances?

1 answer

In both sentences, this is that impersonal "it" that is just used to start the sentence off. There is no other word or phrase that "it" refers to.
