Hi Ewe learners! 😊
In today's lesson, we will be exploring the conditional mood in Ewe. The conditional mood is used to express a hypothetical situation or an action that is dependent on another action. It is important to understand the conditional mood in order to communicate effectively in Ewe.
Overview
The conditional mood is formed by adding the suffix -ɖe to the verb stem. For example, the verb stem for "to go" is ɖo and the conditional form of this verb is ɖoɖe.
The conditional mood can also be used to express politeness. For example, if you want to ask someone to do something, you can use the conditional mood to make the request more polite.
Formation
The conditional mood is formed by adding the suffix -ɖe to the verb stem. For example, the verb stem for "to go" is ɖo and the conditional form of this verb is ɖoɖe.
The conditional mood can also be used with other verb forms, such as the negative form. To form the negative conditional, the suffix -ɖe is added to the negative verb stem. For example, the negative verb stem for "to go" is ɖoɖɔ and the negative conditional form of this verb is ɖoɖɔɖe.
Usage
The conditional mood is used to express a hypothetical situation or an action that is dependent on another action. For example, if you want to say "If I had the money, I would buy a car", you would use the conditional mood.
The conditional mood can also be used to express politeness. For example, if you want to ask someone to do something, you can use the conditional mood to make the request more polite.
Examples

- If I had the money, I would buy a car: Ɣeɖoɖɔɖe nye míele ɖeɖe míekpɔ ɖeka.
- If I had known, I would have gone: Ɣeɖoɖɔɖe nye míedzro ɖeɖe míɖo.
- If you come, I will be happy: Ɣeɖoɖe nye míewu ɖeɖe míenɔnɔ.
