「Japanese Language」 「Verbs」 「Vdic+(no)+nara・(の)なら」 ”If," "if it is the case that" Vdic (no) nara is used to express a supposition or condition. Since nara is the conditional form of the copula da, it requires a noun. Therefore, no is added to nominalize the verb, though this no is optional. Examples: 家を売る(の)なら、今がいい時期だ。 Ie o uru (no) nara, ima ga ii jiki da. If you are to sell the house, now is a good time. 今晩外で食べる(の)なら、どこがいいですか。 Konban soto de taberu (no) nara, doko ga ii desu ka. If we dine out tonight, where is a good place? 見物する(の)なら、観光バスがいいですよ。 Kenbutsu suru (no)nara, kankō-basu ga ii desu yo. If you go sightseeing, a tour bus would be good. Hope this helps! じゃまたね! °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ ° こゆうきあいはら °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °
