    9:15 is it correct to say "If I was wrong, I would have admitted it"?

    • @TheLanguageBro

      Grammatically, it is not correct because you're combining the past simple with a conditional perfect, and it's not possible to do so with different Conditional Types (Type 2 & 3) when writing. But, in conversation, it's okay, as many native speakers combine conditional concepts. That's why it's better to listen to them. In short, it's not correct grammatically but fine to say it conversationally

    Can I ask what are your future language topic plans? Curious what I may look forward to in the future from you!
    Started learning Spanish recently and found an untapped curiosity for languages and linguistics. Thinking I'd like to pick up a little of some other romance languages, and perhaps others like Russian, Chinese, etc.

      My future language topic plans are to do German, then maybe Hebrew (it's an extremely difficult language and it will take a long time, so I don't know for sure), and then, slightly change the content to other topics, such as the history of languages. I will graduate from UNLV with a bachelor's in Spanish in the Summer of 2026, but before reaching this point, I would like to knock out German. After that point, I'll fully commit to making UA-cam videos. I'm interested in other languages (Italian, French, etc.), but I just haven't made it to that point. I do want to execute future videos (like the guide for Italian, French, etc) at some point, and I do think I'll reach those languages. But, right now, I'm switching from my academics to UA-cam videos. In the future, I'd like to fully focus on UA-cam and try mixed content, along with the continuation of guides for other languages. That's the plan.

    How did you learn Hebrew ? Did you live there?

      I actually have about 3-4 videos, and then, I'll unite all of them into one. German will probably start in January because I have to go through exams, holidays, etc. As for Hebrew, I was born and raised in Israel for 11 years. By then, my family and I moved to the USA. The rest is history.

    But when talking, People can speak in indicative mode,is it?

      Yes, the indicative is the most common mood to speak because it simply expresses facts.
