Given that, provided that, on condition that文法上的邏輯都是用於條件子句,但其實三者還是有差異的。provided that, on condition that...(除非...不然...;只有...才能夠...)二者是限定條件,在條件之內某事才可以怎麼樣。
eg: You man not go out tonight on condition that you're back by nine.
套個中國惡霸政權最愛的用詞:
We could talk about anything you like on condition that you Taiwan agree with One China policy.
Given that 則是「在這種情況/條件下,還能夠...」、「區區...還能夠;只有...卻還能...」
eg: Given that there are over 20 students in the class, and only one teacher, I think they have done a marvelous job!
Given that we had so many places to stop on the way, we made pretty good time on our trip!
