英语翻译一个虚拟语气的从句
如果爱迪生没有在实验中尝试用金属（metal）
从句对过去进行虚拟
能不能写成：If Edison had not tried to use the metal in his experiment,the electric bulb would be delayed for hundreds of years.
如果爱迪生没有在实验中尝试用金属（metal）
从句对过去进行虚拟
能不能写成：If Edison had not tried to use the metal in his experiment,the electric bulb would be delayed for hundreds of years.
句子前半没问题,后半应该加上个’发明‘.改善版本：
If Edison had not attempted to use metal in his experiment,the invention of the lightbulb would have been delayed for hundreds of years.
再问： 主句应用对过去的虚拟吗？不应该是would be delayed吗
再答： 这种情况从句的谓语得用过去完成时(had+过去分词)，然后主句谓语用’should (would, could, might)+have+过去分词‘： If I had called her，she would have been late. 要是我给她打了电话，她就迟到了。
再问： 我觉得这个句子应该是错综时态的虚拟语气，主句应用would do
