===Má, mura, sula, nuair===
 
In English, we usually have present tense in a subordinate clause, '''when we have a future tense in the main clause''': ''"'''when''' he '''comes''' home, I''''ll''' be glad''", "'''if''' you understand this, you '''will''' pass the exam", "you '''will''' not be allowed in, '''unless''' you '''buy''' a ticket", "I '''will''' buy a ticket '''before''' I '''go''' in". In Irish, the story is a little more complicated:
 
* If the subordinate clause is introduced with the conjunction ''nuair'', it has a future tense form: ''nuair a thiocfaidh sé abhaile, beidh lúcháir orm''. (In those dialects which add ''-s'' to the present and future forms of the verb in a direct relative clause, it is also usually added in a ''nuair'' clause: ''nuair a thiocfas sé abhaile...'' However, this -s is not a part of the Caighdeán, so we will not use it on the Vicipéid.)
