ヒントとコツ (4)

🎯

The 'Barem' Secret

Always use 'barem' or 'bar' with 'Kad bi'. It makes you sound 100% more like a native speaker and less like a grammar book.

💡

The 'Da' Rule

If you are unsure whether to use 'da' after 'možda', just leave it out. 90% of the time, 'možda' alone is correct.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Expressions of Doubt (Možda, Vjerojatno)
🎯

The 'Malo' Rule

When using the delimitative 'po-', almost always add the word 'malo' (a little). It sounds much more natural to native ears.

🎯

The 'Therefore' Test

If you can replace the word with 'therefore' and it sounds natural in English, use 'stoga'. If 'so' or 'in conclusion' sounds better, use 'dakle'.

よくある質問 (6)

Technically, 'Kad bi' + past participle is for present/future. For past regrets (If only I had known), it's better to use 'Da sam barem znao'.
It's neutral. You can use it with friends or in a professional setting to express a hypothetical wish.
Yes, but it's usually an afterthought. For example: 'On će doći, možda.' (He will come, maybe.)
'Možda' is an adverb (maybe), while 'moguće' is an adjective (possible). Use 'možda' to modify a verb and 'moguće je da' to start a clause.
Mostly with activity verbs (raditi, sjediti, pričati). It doesn't work well with state verbs like 'biti' or 'znati'.
Yes, but 'zaplakati' is more common in natural speech and literature.
