I need somebody, who speak well English. Can you help me?
I'm reading a book in English and I found this sentence in this book: 'We have seen that our civilization rests upon that of Greece and Rome, and that we must look to the past if we would understand the present.'.
I would like to ask you why the author uses 'would' after 'if'. We can't use would after 'if', can we?
Thank you very much for the help!
feltételes mód:)
"..if we would.."---> vajon
Rávilágítok:
If we would go to skiing we need a set of skis.
If we wish to go to skiing we need a set of skis.
Word order:
who speakS good English vagy who speakS English well
Also:
"I found this sentence in this book" Do not use "this book" in this context, becasue you haven't introduced the book to us, so just say "in the book".
Or, you could start your sentence by "I'm reading Latin for Beginners by D’Ooge. B.L. and I found this sentence in this book".
Az "if, would" pedig koltoi szabadsag. Benjamin leirta mi meg olvassuk, ha nyelvtanilag hibas, ha nem.

go skiing vagy go to ski
nem?
