If you sneak a peek at https://archive.org/details/bitsavers_da...hB_3679804, you'll see that the grand-pappy of them all had the options:
IF condition THEN statement
IF condition GOTO line
I've also seen:
IF condition THEN line
But who knows what other possibilities have existed among all of the BASIC dialects.
