How to Test a Restatement
Captions available
The idea
Check three things in order: the tense, the mood, and whether any condition survives. An option failing on any one of the three is wrong regardless of how natural it sounds. Naturalness is not the test, faithfulness is.
In practice
Tense, mood, condition: check all three.
Where people slip
The smoothest option is often wrong.
