"Protože bys chtěla hrad!"

Translation: Because you would want a castle!

[lobachevsky.]

I think "Because you would like to have a castle." should be accepted. Of course this would translate to "Protože bys chtěla mít hrad", but I think the having is implied strongly enough, because what else would you want? Be one? Be romantically involved with one?

i agree

[EilatBenEl]

This is a very not intuitive sentence... A better one could be, for example, "Because then you would want an ice-cream too!" or "If I gave you a finger you would want the whole hand".

[Randonneur3]

At least there is a conjunction word. I got the idiom alright.

[Randonneur3]

I missed where the conditional was introduced above, using the past tense. There is no lesson 'conditionals'.

[VladaFu]

I think it is being introduced right here. It uses the past participle + a special form of "bych/bys/by...".

[Denis596860]

I answered ' because she would want a castle' was wrong. Doesn't 'chtela' refer to 'her'?

[nueby]

Yes, "chtěla" does refer to a feminine subject, but "bys" refers to singular informal address 2nd person. You would need just "by" for your answer to be right. The "s" is all the difference.
