Хотя , пока будем формально считать, что время глагола, которое называется Future Simple Tense, является основным для выражения будущего времени в английском языке. Кстати, в сложных предложениях времени и условия в английском языке, о которых пойдет речь в этом уроке, используется именно Future Simple Tense.

  1. Что такое придаточные предложения времени и условия?

Могут относиться к настоящему и будущему времени (реальные условия), а также бы нереальными. В этом уроке речь пойдет о сложных предложениях, которые относятся к будущему времени , типа

Если погода будет хорошая, я пойду гулять.

Такие предложения в английском языке называются условными предложениями ПЕРВОГО ТИПА (First Conditionals). Другое название — When and If Sentences / First Conditional and Time Clauses.

Обратите внимание, что в примере на русском языке в обеих частях : в первой части (придаточной) и во второй части (главной), употребляется будущее время.

Однако в английском языке работает ПРАВИЛО: после IF/ WHEN — нет будущего.

Оно означает, что в придаточном предложении вместо Future Simple, нужно употреблять Present Simple.

ПРИМЕЧАНИЕ. Вместо союза ЕСЛИ может стоять любой другой союз времени или условия.

Теперь настало время познакомиться с союзами времени и условия.

2. Союзы времени и условия в английском языке

Если вы начинающий, то запомните два главных союза if (если) и when (когда).

  • I will stay if she comes. — Я останусь, если она придет.
  • I will leave when he comes. — Я уйду, когда он придет.

А. Условные союзы в английском языке:

  1. if — если
  2. unless — если не
  3. on condition that — при условии что
  1. I will stay if she comes. — Я останусь, если она придет.
  2. I will stay providing she comes. — Я останусь при условии, если только она придет.
  3. I won’t stay unless she comes. — Я не останусь, если она не придет.

Обратите внимание, что в английских условных предложениях запятая отсутствует.

В. Союзы времени в английском языке

  1. when — когда
  2. as soon as — как только
  3. till (until) — до тех пор пока (не)
  4. before — раньше, до того как
  5. after — после
  1. I will leave when he comes. — Я уйду, когда он придет.
  2. I will leave as soon as he comes. — Я уйду, как только он придет.
  3. I won’t leave till he comes. — Я не уйду, пока он не придет.
  4. I had left before he came. — Я ушел до того, как он пришел.
  5. I left after he had come. — Я ушел после того, как он пришел.

Итак, подведем итоги этой темы и сформулируем еще раз основное ПРАВИЛО.

В придаточных предложениях, относящихся к будущему, после союзов when и if и других вместо будущего времени (Future Simple), надо употреблять наcтоящее (Present Simple). Такие предложения в английском языке называются First Conditional and Time Clauses.

Для самопроверки выберите правильный вариант.

Я надеюсь, что вы внимательно прочитали правило, примеры и перевод. Если же ваше мнение отличается от мнения БОЛЬШИНСТВА, то вернитесь к началу урока. А мы переходим к упражнениям.

Relative clause - или на русском определительное придаточное предложение, - это часть сложного предложения, которое зависит от главного. Оно обычно соединяет два маленьких предложения в одно или просто добавляет новую интересную информацию, чтобы вам было понятнее, давайте посмотрим пример.

I have a mother who works as a doctor. - У меня есть мама, которая работает врачом.

I missed the bus that was going to take me to church. - Я пропустила автобус, который должен был отвезти меня в церковь.

Defining relative clauses (Ограничительные определения)

Defining relative clauses дают важную информацию о

Сравните:

1. My sister, who lives in London, is coming to Paris.

2. My sister who lives in London is coming to Paris.

В первом предложении, придаточное предложение who lives in London - это non-defining relative clause. Это придаточное предложение сообщает дополнительную информацию: у меня есть только одна сестра и она живет в Лондоне. Если опустить информацию о том, где живет моя сестра, все равно будет понятно, что мы хотим сказать.

Второе предложение - это defining relative clause: у меня есть несколько сестер, и в данный момент я говорю о сестре, которая живет в Лондоне.

В defining relative clauses мы можем опустить слово-связку

I"ve eaten the pasta (which) I made yesterday.

Ограничительные придаточные предложения при письме не выделяются запятыми.

Non-defining relative clauses (Распространительные предложения)

Non-defining relative дают дополнительную информацию о подлежащем. Придаточное предложение в этом случае выделяется с двух сторон запятыми.

Either, neither, both

Для того чтобы перейти к более подробному рассмотрению этой темы, изуч им переводы этих союзов:

neither ... nor - ни... ни;

either ... or - или... или, либо... либо;

both ... and - и... и, как... так и.

Теперь изучим каждое из этих сочетаний в отдельности.

Neither ... nor - ни... ни

Данный союз является отрицательным и служит для соединения однородных членов предложения. Чтобы его употребление было более понятным, изучите несколько примеров.

Neither Kate nor her friend answered the question (союз соединяет подлежащие) - Ни Катя, ни ее подруга не ответили на вопрос.

We brought neither books nor copy-books (союз соединяет дополнения) - Мы не принесли ни книг, ни тетрадей.

We mustn"t neither help, nor lend the money to John (союз соединяет сказуемые) - Мы не обязаны ни помогать, ни давать денег взаймы Джону.

We bought neither old nor new flat (союз соединяет определения) - Мы не купили ни старую, ни новую квартиру.

Обратите внимание на то, что союз neither ... nor соединяет любые члены предложения: это могут быть подлежащие, определения, дополнения, сказуемые и т.д.

Следует запомнить, что сочетание neither ... nor часто служит для соединения подлежащих, тогда сказуемое согласуется с ближайшим подлежащим. Но это правило обычно не соблюдается, и сказуемое ставится во множественном числе, как показано в примерах выше.

Рассмотрите это примечание на примере.

Neither my friends nor Kate want s to go to a party - Ни мои друзья, ни Катя не хотят идти на вечеринку (сказуемое согласуется с ближайшим подлежащим).

Neither my friends nor Kate want to go to a party - Ни мои друзья, ни Катя не хотят идти на вечеринку (сказуемое стоит во множественном числе - обычно употребляется этот вариант перевода).

Также необходимо обратить внимание на тот факт, что в английском предложении может быть только одно отрицание, а так как союз neither ... nor - отрицательный , сказуемое в предложении всегда должно быть утвердительным. Это видно из всех выше приведенных примеров.

Если neither

Изучите пример.

We neither sent the parcel nor the letter - Мы не отправили ни посылку, ни письмо.

Either ... or - или... или, либо... либо

Данный союз используется в утвердительных предложениях, соединяя однородные члены. В отличие от союза neither ... nor, either ... or , соединяя подлежащие, согласуется с ближайшим из них.

Чтобы употребление данного союза было более понятно, изучите несколько примеров.

Either our classmates, or your friend has complained to the teacher - Или наши одноклассники, или твой друг нажаловался учителю.

Если either не относится к подлежащему, то его можно ставить перед глаголом-сказуемым.

They will either build a restaurant or a shopping center in this district - Они построят либо ресторан, либо торговый центр в этом районе.

Если предложение отрицательное, то союз either ... or может выступать в роли союза neither ... nor .

Изучите пример.

We didn"t paint either ceiling or wall - Мы не покрасили ни потолок, ни стену.

Both ... and - и... и, как... так и

Данный союз используется в утвердительных предложениях и соединяет однородные члены предложения. Если союз соединяет подлежащие, то сказуемое необходимо употреблять во множественном числе.

Изучите несколько примеров.
