Introduction
Časovni odvisnki [temporal clauses] so del prislovnih stavkov; ti so sestavljeni iz neodvisnih in odvisnih stavkov, povezanih z vezniki. Vezniki časovnih odvisnikov se nanašajo na točno določeno točko v času.
Form
Časovne odvisnike lahko izrazimo s pomočjo dveh vrst struktur, ki se razlikujeta po vrstnem redu besed, po pomenu pa ne:
- Connector + clause + , + clause
- Clause + connector + clause
Stavki izgledajo tako: osebek + glagol. Vezniki so: before, after, when in while.
Example
Before
- Before I go to work, I drink coffee.
I drink a coffee before I go to work. - Before it starts raining, we should leave.

After
- After you fainted, the ambulance came.
The ambulance came after you fainted. - After we got to know her, we realized she was selfish.

When
- When she had a disease, she felt bad.
She felt bad when she had a disease. - When they were sleeping, the light was on.

While
- While you were reading, they had some coffee.

Use
Časovne odvisnike uporabljamo za tvorjenje bolj kompleksnih povedi in za umeščanje nekega dogodka v točno določenem trenutku ali obdobju. Časovni odvisniki imajo smisel zaradi teh veznikov:
- Before (prejšnji dogodek);
- After (sledeči dogodek);
- When (v točno določenem trenutku);
- While (istočasno kot neki drugi dogodek).
Summary
Časovne odvisnike [temporal clauses] uporabljamo za tvorjenje bolj kompleksnih povedi in za umeščanje dogodka v točno določen trenutek ali obdobje. Ponavadi so sestavljeni iz dveh delov: neodvisni in odvisni stavek, ki sta povezana z veznikom.
Ti vezniki so: before, after, when in while.
Strukture so:
Connector + clause + , + clause
Clause + connector + clause
Na primer:
— “Before you cook dinner, I’ll have a shower.” / “I’ll have a shower before you cook dinner.” = Tuš je prvi dogodek, ki se bo zgodil, in večerja je drugi.
— “After you cook dinner, I’ll have a shower.” / “I’ll have a shower after you cook dinner.” = Večerja je prvi dogodek, ki se bo zgodil, in tuš je drugi.
— “When the dinner is ready, I’ll have a shower.” / “I’ll have a shower when the dinner is ready.” = Tuš je drugi dogodek, ki se zgodi v točno določenem trenutku.
— “While you cook dinner, I’ll have a shower.” / “I’ll have a shower while you cook dinner.” = Dva dogodka se dogajata istočasno.
