"let her go"; not "let her to go".

Otherwise, OK.

Amir OghlowOnly if she promised me would I let her go. Is it correct?
Yes.
Amir OghlowAnd Is it okay to use "only if" with mixed conditional?
Yes. The addition of "only" at the beginning is a separate and independent issue from that of mixed conditionals.

Does the above mean that she didn't promise him yesterday which results in that that he hasn't let her go yet?
