Please check carefully!!!


Hi,



before writing the following sentence I think I erased it 2-3 times and in the end I hope having chosen the right one

:-)



Please check:



1. attempt - erased



"In case there will be any doubts, we would get back" I did not choose it because I did not feel the future tense to be the best solution here.



2. attempt - erased

"In case there were any doubts, we would get back" I used the "were" to create a subjunctive tense (in italian I would use it!! or present tense is possible as well)



3. attempt - chosen

"In case there are any doubts, we shall get back" I used the present tense, which is possible in Italian as well and maybe it is the simplest solution. About the "shall" I have some doubts, I was tempted to say "will"but in the end I chose "shall" .Did I do right?



Please can someone check each attempt mentioned? It is for me very important!!

Thanks

If we have any doubts, we will get back to you . -- 'Get back' needs a predicate.

Hi,

thanks for your reply, although I did not understand why you removed the "in case...."ans use only "if".

Is it the only one possibiliy what you have suggested?

Thanks

'In case' is stilted: use a simple 'if'.
