  • Verb Root + -al

اشتباهات رایج

You must use the past stem form before adding -al. Always check your stem conjugation.

Wrong: படிக்கால் (paḍikkāl)
صحیح: படித்தால் (paḍithāl)

Avoid over-complicating with 'enrāl'. The suffix -al is sufficient to express 'if'.

Wrong: மழை பெய்யுதல் என்றால் (mazhai peyyudhal enrāl)
صحیح: மழை பெய்தால் (mazhai peithāl)

Don't add 'enrāl' at the end of the conditional clause; the -al is already doing the work.

Wrong: நான் போனால், அவன் வருவான் என்றால் (nān pōnāl, avan varuvān enrāl)
صحیح: நான் போனால், அவன் வருவான் (nān pōnāl, avan varuvān)
