If only …
To talk about something that is not true now, put the hvis clause in the past tense and use ville in the main clause:
| real | unreal |
|---|---|
| Hvis jeg har tid, læser jeg. | Hvis jeg havde tid, ville jeg læse. |
| If I have time, I read. | If I had time, I would read. |
| If I were rich, I would buy a big house. | Hvis jeg var rig, ville jeg købe et stort hus. |
| If I had time, I would read more. | Hvis jeg havde tid, ville jeg læse mere. |
Because the hvis clause comes first, the main clause starts with the verb: ville jeg.
| If it were not raining, we would go for a walk. | Hvis det ikke regnede, ville vi gå en tur. |
Your own
egen agrees like an adjective: min egen bil, mit eget hus, mine egne børn.
| I would like to have my own house. | Jeg ville gerne have mit eget hus. |
