Conditionals - Armenian Grammar

In Armenian language learning, understanding conditionals is essential as it enables learners to express various states or situations. Conditionals are sentences that describe certain situations and their possible outcomes. Among the core exercises in Armenian grammar are the conditional exercises.

The Armenian language employs three major types of conditionals – real, unreal, and past unreal conditionals. Real conditionals are used to express situations that can or cannot happen in the present or future. Unreal conditionals describe unrealistic or hypothetical situations. Past unreal conditionals talk about past situations that did not happen.

Grammar exercises involve translating sentences from other languages into Armenian and vice versa, creating sentences in Armenian using given conditions, and identifying and correcting errors in Armenian conditional sentences. Reinforcement comes by writing essays, making use of all three types of conditionals.

One commonly applied exercise is the “fill in the blanks,” where students have to choose the correct conditional form. Another common exercise is “sentence matching,” where they need to match two sentences which are related by some conditions.

Such exercises provide comprehensive training in the usage of conditionals, reinforcing their understanding of the conditional constructs in Armenian. With consistent practice, these exercises greatly enhance learners’ fluency and precision in the Armenian language.
