Usage notes

 * As shown in the first example, sometimes there is no direct equivalent to in English, especially if it expresses the cause, so only the subsequent  can be translated, or the reason can be emphasized in English.
 * If is not in the syntactic focus position in the sentence (that is, if it does not directly precede the predicate), its meaning is entirely different, as given above in the third sense. It is also pronounced with a different intonation (starting from low pitch, then slightly raising, as opposed to the other two meanings, expressing cause or purpose, which start from a high pitch and then fall).
