    He'll come if it doesn't rain. — Он придет, если не будет дождя.

    Even if you thought so you didn't have to say it. — Даже если вы так и думали, не надо было этого говорить.

    - if it is not much trouble
    - if only I knew!
    2) ли

    If ifs and ans were pots and pans. — Если бы да кабы, то во рту б росли грибы.

    USAGE:
    (1.) If в значении 1. вводит придаточные предложения условия, в которых не употребляются формы Future; вместо них употребляются формы Present или Past: he said he would come if he was free он сказал, что придет, если будет свободен; he will ring you up if he doesn't come very late он вам позвонит, если придет не очень поздно. (2.) Союз if в значении 2. и whether вводят косвенную речь: I wonder if/whether he will come in time интересно, придет ли он вовремя. They asked if whether our team had won. Они спросили выиграла ли наша команда. После соответствующего косвенного вопроса ставится точка, а не вопросительный знак, как в русском языке. (3.) Союз if в значении 2. не употребляется: (а.) в альтернативных косвенных вопросах; (б) после предлогов и перед инфинитивом с частицей to; (в) после глаголов to discuss и to hesitate. В этих случаях употребляется только whether: let me know whether (а не if) he will stay or leave tomorrow дай мне знать, останется он или уедет; I am not sure whether (а не if) he will ring you up or come himself я не знаю, позвонит ли он тебе или зайдет лично; she was not sure whether (а не if) to go or wai она не знала уйти или остаться; they tried to settle the question of whether to let the child join this club они пытались решить вопрос разрешить ли ребенку вступить в этот клуб; we discussed (hesitated) whether to accept the invitation мы не знали/колебались/обсуждали принимать ли приглашение. (4.) Союз if в значении 3., объединяя два прилагательных или два наречия в качестве определителя одного и того же существительного или глагола, может, в зависимости от контекста, пониматься двояко, как союз - хотя и не и как союз - если не; словосочетания a great play, if not the greatest, by this author могут означать как "прекрасная, если не лучшая пьеса этого автора", так и "прекрасная, но не лучшая пьеса этого автора". (5.) Придаточные условия могут, кроме союза if в значении 1., вводиться союзами as long as, provided, providing, сочетаниями on condition (в значении but only if) - только если, при условии, что: You may use my car as long as you drive carefully. Вы можете взять мою машину, только если вы будете ездить осторожно. (6.) See whether, cj

Crit. 1, 5 al.), is perh. solved in the foll. remarks: Such is the affinity of the sound of ŭ and ĭ in Lat., that when they stand in two successive syllables, separated by the semivowel l, the u is accommodated to the i. Thus, from consŭl arises consĭlĭum; from exsŭl, exsĭlĭum; from famŭl, famĭlĭa; so the terminations ĭlis and ŭlus, not ŭlis and ĭlus (these few, mutĭlus, nubĭlus, pumĭlus, [p. 181] rutĭlus, appear to be founded in the u of the first syllable; but for the heteroclites gracila, sterila, etc., a nom. sing. gracilus, sterilus, etc., is no more needed than for Bacchanal orum, a nom. Bacchanalium, and for carioras, Manil. ap. Varr. L. L. 7, § 28 MSS., a form cariorus, a, um); and so it is also explained, that from the orig. facul and difficul arose faculter, facultas; difficulter, difficultas; not facŭlis, facŭliter, facŭlītas; difficŭlis, difficŭlĭter, difficŭlĭtas; but facilis, faciliter, facilitas; difficilis, difficiliter, difficilitas. This principle, applied to the derivatives of simul, shows the correctness of the orthography simulo, simulatio, simulator, with similis, similitudo, similitas; adsimulo, adsimulatio, adsimulator, with adsimilis; dissimulo, dissimulatio, dissimulator, with dissimilis and dissimilitudo, etc.; cf. Diom. p. 362 P.: Similo non dicimus, sed similis est. Sane dixerunt auctores simulat per u, hoc est homoiazei. But since the copyists knew that the more rare signif. of making like was not generically connected in the words simulare and adsimulare with the more usual one of imitating, dissembling, they wrote, where the former was required, sim i lo, adsim i lo, and gave occasion thereby to the entirely unfounded supposition that the ancients wrote, for the signif. making like, similo, adsimilo; for that of imitating, feigning, simulo, adsimulo Fr.—Hence, assĭmŭlātus ( ads-), a, um, P. a.

Crit. 1, 5 al.), is perh. solved in the foll. remarks: Such is the affinity of the sound of ŭ and ĭ in Lat., that when they stand in two successive syllables, separated by the semivowel l, the u is accommodated to the i. Thus, from consŭl arises consĭlĭum; from exsŭl, exsĭlĭum; from famŭl, famĭlĭa; so the terminations ĭlis and ŭlus, not ŭlis and ĭlus (these few, mutĭlus, nubĭlus, pumĭlus, [p. 181] rutĭlus, appear to be founded in the u of the first syllable; but for the heteroclites gracila, sterila, etc., a nom. sing. gracilus, sterilus, etc., is no more needed than for Bacchanal orum, a nom. Bacchanalium, and for carioras, Manil. ap. Varr. L. L. 7, § 28 MSS., a form cariorus, a, um); and so it is also explained, that from the orig. facul and difficul arose faculter, facultas; difficulter, difficultas; not facŭlis, facŭliter, facŭlītas; difficŭlis, difficŭlĭter, difficŭlĭtas; but facilis, faciliter, facilitas; difficilis, difficiliter, difficilitas. This principle, applied to the derivatives of simul, shows the correctness of the orthography simulo, simulatio, simulator, with similis, similitudo, similitas; adsimulo, adsimulatio, adsimulator, with adsimilis; dissimulo, dissimulatio, dissimulator, with dissimilis and dissimilitudo, etc.; cf. Diom. p. 362 P.: Similo non dicimus, sed similis est. Sane dixerunt auctores simulat per u, hoc est homoiazei. But since the copyists knew that the more rare signif. of making like was not generically connected in the words simulare and adsimulare with the more usual one of imitating, dissembling, they wrote, where the former was required, sim i lo, adsim i lo, and gave occasion thereby to the entirely unfounded supposition that the ancients wrote, for the signif. making like, similo, adsimilo; for that of imitating, feigning, simulo, adsimulo Fr.—Hence, assĭmŭlātus ( ads-), a, um, P. a.
