I have loads, but they are precious and I don't waste them. :)
Now that I've set you to ignore... quiet in the classroom, kids 
Continuam acusica cu IF-clauses.
Mireluţa a scris:interesting teacher, maybe in this way i will teach better the english
to learn / to teach
to learn este a invata
to learn - learnt/learned) - learnt/learned
(forma neregulata, in -t, incepe sa fie inlocuita prin forma regulata)
to teach este a preda
to teach - taught - taught
a invata ceva pe cineva tot cu teach se traduce.
De asemenea, este English, fara 'the': I speak English. I understand German. I like Spanish.
Lesson 3 - Grammar
Real Condition - Unreal Condition
Este clasificarea IF-Clause-urilor in functie de posibilitatea indeplinirii conditiei.
Real Condition
(cele care corespund tipului I)
Exemplul era If you like literature, you read books. Il vom schimba cu If you like literature, you buy books pentru ca read este verb neregulat care nu isi schimba forma la trecut si participiu.
Evident, propozitia poate fi trecuta si la alte timpuri:
If you like literature, you buy books.
- Conditie reala in prezent: Daca iti place literatura, cumperi carti.
If you liked literature, you bought books.
- Conditie reala in trecut: Daca ti-a placut literatura, ai cumparat carti.
If you like literature, you will buy/are going to buy books.
- Conditie reala in viitor: Daca iti va placea literatura, vei cumpara carti (nu se foloseste "will" in propozitia IF).
Unreal Condition (tipul II si III)
If you had liked literature, you would have bought books.
- Conditie ireala in trecut: Daca ti-ar fi placut literatura, ai fi cumparat carti. (type II)
If you liked literature, you would read books (today).
- Conditie ireala in prezent: Daca ti-ar placea literatura, ai cumpara carti (astazi). (type III)
If you liked literature, you would read books (next year).
- Conditie ireala in viitor: Daca ti-ar placea literatura, ai cumpara carti (anul viitor). (type III)
Mixed Conditionals
Secventa temporala "uzuala" poate diferi, in functie de timpul actiunii in ceea ce se numesc mixed conditionals, tocmai pentru ca "amesteca" timpurile verbelor din tipul II si III.
Past --> PresentIf I had taken an aspirin, I wouldn't have a headache now.

Alte expresii conditionale, in afara de IF:
as long as
assuming (that)
on condition (that)
on the assumption (that)
provided (that)
supposing (that)
unless
with the condition (that)
De asemenea IF, poate fi omis:
Had you liked literature... (in loc de If you had liked literature...)
Poate fi inlocuit cu when doar in cazul unor generalitati, la fel ca in limba romana.
Daca incalzesti gheata, se topeste. --- If you warm ice, it melts.
Cand incalzesti gheata, se topeste. --- When you warm ice, it melts.
Propozitia conditionala poate fi inlocuita si prin folosirea expresiei in case of:
If there is an emergency, ring the bell. --- In case of emergency, ring the bell.
Cam atat cu If-Clauses :) Exercitii si teste se gasesc aici.
