Usage notes

The conditional mood in Armenian shows actions in the future which depend on a condition; therefore, it is more typical to compound sentences. It has two tenses: future and future perfect.

  • Infinitive: գրել (grel)to write
  • Future tense conditional: կգրեմ (kgrem)I will write
  • Future perfect tense conditional: կգրեի (kgrei)I would have written
    • եթե ուզեմ, կգրեմetʻe uzem, kgremif I want, I will write
