Review Summary

  • Noun + որը/որ + clause + որը/որ + clause
  • Noun + [participle phrase]
  • Noun, [noun phrase], verb
  • Subject + այնքան + adjective + որ + consequence
  • Action + կարծես + hypothetical situation
  • Subject, [extra info], verb

Erros comuns

Missing the 'է' (is) verb before the consequence clause. Always ensure the adjective is linked correctly.

Wrong: Նա այնքան բարի որ բոլորը սիրում են նրան։
Correto: Նա այնքան բարի է, որ բոլորը սիրում են նրան։

Using 'որ' instead of 'որը' when the clause refers to a specific previously mentioned noun.

Wrong: Այս գիրքը, որ ես կարդացի, շատ լավն է։
Correto: Այս գիրքը, որը ես կարդացի, շատ լավն է։

Redundant use of the pronoun 'նա'. When using 'կարծես', the subject is usually implied.

Wrong: Նա խոսում էր կարծես նա գիտեր։
Correto: Նա խոսում էր, կարծես գիտեր։
