- <p>"如果⋯⋯的话，⋯⋯" (rúguǒ... de huà, ...) is a pattern commonly used in
- Chinese to express "if." An easy way to remember the pattern's
- format is that in the full form, the condition is "sandwiched"
- between 如果 and 的话.</p>
- <p>An important thing to note is that 如果 can be switched out for
- the various other terms for "if," including <a href=
- ""If%E2%80%A6_Then%E2%80%A6"_with_"yaoshi""
- title="wikilink">the common 要是</a> (yàoshi) and <a href=
- ""If%E2%80%A6_Then%E2%80%A6"_with_"jiaru""
- title="wikilink">the formal 假如</a> (jiǎrú), among others. Also,
- keep in mind that the 的话 at the end is optional, and even the
- leading "if" word is optional! Even when there are no explicit "if"
- words in a sentence, though, the "if" can be inferred from context.
- But be glad if you get either a 如果 or a 的话; it makes understanding
- the sentence that much easier!</p>
