ヒントとコツ (4)

💡

Drop the 'Tahole'

In fast speech, you can just pause instead of saying 'tahole'. It sounds very natural!
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Conditional Type 1: Real Conditions (যদি... তাহলে... - jodi... tahole...)
💡

Consistency

Always check both clauses.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Conditional Type 2: Hypothetical Present/Future (যদি... তবে... - jodi... tobe...)
💡

The 'No-If' Rule

Always double-check that you deleted the word 'if'. It is the most common error.

Comma usage

Always use a comma before 'na hole' to keep your sentences clear.

Review Summary

  • Jodi + Present, Future
  • Jodi + Past, Would/Could
  • Verb-form + comma + then
  • Action, na hole + consequence

よくある間違い

Ensure correct verb conjugation for conditional hypothetical markers.

Wrong: যদি আমি যাইতাম, তবে আমি আসতাম।
正解: যদি আমি যেতাম, তবে আমি আসতাম।

Na hole usually follows an action, not starts the thought.

Wrong: না হলে, আমি খাব।
正解: আমি খাব, না হলে আমার দেরি হবে।

In Type 1, the 'if' clause should use present tense, not future.

Wrong: যদি আমি কাল আসব, তবে আমরা খেলব।
正解: যদি আমি কাল আসি, তবে আমরা খেলব।

よくある質問 (6)

Yes, but it's less common. 'Ami jabo jodi tumi aso' is understood but 'Jodi tumi aso, tahole ami jabo' is the standard structure.
'Tahole' is neutral and used in daily speech. 'Tobe' is more formal, literary, or used in logical arguments.
No, use Type 3 for the past.
No, it's optional.
It is not recommended. It sounds too formal and might confuse your friends.
Yes, but 'Were I to go' is much more formal.
