Hogyan használjuk az "unless"-t

Az unless ugyanazt jelenti, mint az if...not. Az if-hez hasonlóan, az unless szót az egyszerű jelen vagy múlt követi, vagy a befejezett múlt idő (sosem a feltételes mód). Az unless szót az if...not helyett használjuk az összes fajta feltételes mondatban. A mellékmondatok sorrendje nem számít az olyan mondatokban, amelyekben az unless-t használjuk.
