Ano, I kindly ask for some explanations for these. Also if you can offer sentence examples, I'd really appreciate that ^_^.
nakereba for e.g. minakereba - if you don't look (?)
reba for e.g. mireba - if you look (?)
takereba for e.g. mitakereba - (i've never heard this one before)
naraba for e.g. shizuka naraba - if it is quiet, then... (?)
saseru for e.g. piano no renshyuu wo saseru - I will do piano practice (?)
(I looked up saseru and it meant "to make (someone) do", can it also mean to make oneself do something?)
And is sasete just the "te" form of saseru? I've heard stuff like "sasete morau" and "sasete itadakimasu". I guess I know what they mean and when to use but I refrain to use them because I don't enough information about these forms hence I feel like I have no control over my Japanese.
It's been nagging me for a while and I want to get to the bottom of it.
