Answer 1

Answer:

A. I would have prepared your favourite dishes

• Subordinate clause ൽ if ന് ശേഷം subject വരികയും ശേഷം had+third firm of verb(v3) വരികയാണെങ്കിൽ,main clause ൽ subject ന് ശേഷം would അല്ലെങ്കിൽ should അല്ലെങ്കിൽ could അല്ലെങ്കിൽ might വരികയും ശേഷം have+ verb ന്റെ third form (subject+ would /should / could/might+v3) വരികയും ചെയ്യുന്നു.
• ഇവിടെ subordinate clause ൽ subject നു ശേഷം had told(had+v3) വരുന്നു.അതിനാൽ main clause ൽ would have prepared എന്ന് ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നു.
