Other / Vocab Item | | Mongolian term or phrase: хэрэв тийм бол | Greetings,
The context: a conversation at a restaurant.
David: I like beef a lot.
Bat: In that case let’s all have beef fillets…
My question: is “in that case” in general a good translation for “хэрэв тийм бол”?
Also, very importantly, please could you explain what “хэрэв тийм бол” means word for word? Is хэрэв ever used on its own? How is it used?
All the best, and many thanks,
Simon |
