## Conditional Forms
|
||||
### 1. The ~eba (~えば) Form
|
||||
|
||||
This is often called the **"Logical If."** Use this when focusing on the condition required to achieve a specific result.
|
||||
|
||||
- **How to form it:** **Verbs:** Change the final _~u_ sound to _~e_ and add _ば_. (e.g., _Iku_ → _Ikeba_)
|
||||
|
||||
- **I-Adjectives:** Drop the final _~i_, add _~kereba_. (e.g., _Samui_ → _Samukereba_)
|
||||
|
||||
- **The Vibe:** It’s very "If A happens, then B will definitely follow." It is often used for instructions, proverbs, or mathematical certainties.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. The Nakereba (なければ) Form
|
||||
|
||||
This is simply the **negative version of ~eba**. It translates to **"If "something" does not happen."**
|
||||
|
||||
- **How to form it:** Take the negative (_nai_) form of a verb, drop the _~i_, and add _~kereba_.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Example:** _Tabenai_ (don't eat) → _Tabenakereba_ (If I don't eat).
|
||||
- 安くなければ、買いません - If it’s not cheap, I won’t buy it.
|
||||
- Note: Here, the negative 'i-adjective' (yasukunai) follows the same rule.
|
||||
- 練習しなければ、上手になりません - If you don't practice, you won't become skilled.
|
||||
- **Common Use:** You’ll see this in the phrase for "must": _~nakereba narimasen_ (lit: "If you don't do it, it won't be okay").
|
||||
- 薬を飲まなければなりません - I must take my medicine. **Logic:** If I don't drink the medicine, it won't do.
|
||||
- Can also stick "よかった" after it to mean "I wish I "
|
||||
- あのお菓子を食べなければよかった - I shouldn't have eaten those sweets. (I regret eating them.)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### 3. The ~tara (~ら) Form
|
||||
|
||||
This is the **"Conversational If."** It is the most versatile and common conditional in spoken Japanese.
|
||||
|
||||
- **How to form it:** Take the **past tense** of the verb/adjective and add _~ra_.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Verbs:** _Itta_ (went) → _Ittara_ (If/when I go).
|
||||
|
||||
- **Adjectives:** _Samukatta_ (was cold) → _Samukattara_ (If it's cold).
|
||||
|
||||
- **The Vibe:** It can mean "if" (hypothetical) or "when" (temporal). It’s very safe to use in almost any casual situation.
|
||||
|
||||
#### What is the negative of ~tara?
|
||||
|
||||
The negative form is **~nakattara**.
|
||||
|
||||
- **How to form it:** Take the negative past tense (_~nakatta_) and add _~ra_.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Example:** _Ikanakatta_ (didn't go) → _Ikanakattara_ (If I don't go/If I hadn't gone).
|
||||
|
||||
