Belirli bir durum dışında; değilse.

Nasıl kullanılır

The conjunction 'unless' is commonly used in formal and informal writing to convey a condition that must be met for a particular action to occur. It is often used in clauses that begin with 'if' or 'in case.' For example, 'I'll attend the party unless I have a prior commitment.' One common mistake learners make is using 'unless' incorrectly in place of 'if,' which can change the meaning of the sentence entirely. For instance, 'I'll attend the party unless I have a prior commitment' means the opposite of 'I'll attend the party if I have a prior commitment.'
