The action or state expressed by the sentence which precedes 〜たら is the condition of the event or situation expressed by the rest of the sentence. Depending on the context, it is interpreted differently—as time sequences like "when" and "after," or conditions like "if." Verb 食べます → 食べた + ら = 食べたら Noun 夏です → 夏だった + ら = 夏だったら な-adjective 静かです → 静かだった + ら = 静かだったら い-adjective 難しいです → 難しかった + ら = 難しかったら もし あめ がふったら  ほん を よみます Moshi Ame Ga Futtara Hon Wo Yomimasu If it rains I will read a book We start with MOSHI to emphasise the conditional at the beginning of the sentence .
