Grammar notes 44
If can be expressed in two ways. One of them is to vowelshift the last character to え and appending ば, ーえば form. The implication of this form is that if A happens B will happen as a natural consequence of A. AえばB.
A second way to express if is by the word なら/ならば.
The pattern ーえばいい(良い) could be consider the english equivalent to "You should".
The pattern "the more/the less" is tricky. But basically it's
AーえばするほどB
The more of A, the more of B.
ーなければなりません is used to express obligation to do things, although ーなければいけません when you are obliging others.
