Question

Complete the sentence. I would have bought a gift, if

• A. you called me on your birthday
• B. you had called me on your birthday
• C. you would call me on your birthday
• D. you call me on your birthday

Answer 1

Answer:

B. you had called me on your birthday

• "if you had called me on your birthday," is in the past perfect tense and is used to express a past unreal condition, which fits the structure "I would have bought a gift" and the hypothetical situation (സാങ്കൽപ്പിക) in the sentence.
• "you called me on your birthday" - This option is in the simple past tense. 
• "you would call me on your birthday" - This option uses "would" in the conditional clause, but it doesn't create the past unreal condition needed for the sentence. It implies a future event rather than a past one. 
• "you call me on your birthday" - This option is in the simple present tense. It suggests a real or habitual action, not a hypothetical or unreal one.
