Advanced mixed conditionals – English Grammar C1
Advanced mixed conditionals
Na C1 nivou biramo vremensku kombinaciju prema značenju, a uslov ponekad izražavamo i bez if.
Prošli uslov → sadašnja posledica
If + Past Perfect, would + infinitiv govori o sadašnjoj posledici nerealne prošlosti.
Now upućuje na sadašnji rezultat.
Sadašnja osobina → prošla posledica
If + Past Simple, would have + V3: trajna nerealna osobina utiče na raniji događaj.
Sadašnja hipotetička osobina stoji u Past Simple.
Conditional inversion
Bez if se uz had, were ili should može koristiti inverzija.
Had + subject + past participle.
