"If we had another child, we would need a bigger apartment."

Translation: Kdybychom měli další dítě, potřebovali bychom větší byt.

[Frenchie_cz]

vzalo by to i "kdybysme"?

[ValaCZE]

Kdybysme je nespisovně, takže ne.

[LaynePierc1]

why not "druhe dite"

[VladaFu]

second or other, How do you know they do not have five already?

[Chessnecof]

Why do we use kdybychom here instead of just jestli? Or another direct translation of if

[VladaFu]

Because it is the conditional mood. kdybych/kdybys/... is a part of the conditional mood construction, not just rhe word if.

[Johnuv]

Why does the word order matter with potrebovali and bychom? Wouldn't bychom potrebovali be the same as potrebovali bychom?

[VladaFu]

No, bychom belongs among the clitic auxiliary forms of být and hence it must be in the second position.
