It was very windy that day, and I had my umbrella blown inside out.      Es war an diesem Tag sehr windig, und mein Schirm hatte sich umgestülpt. When I realized it was raining, I took my umbrella.      Als ich begriffen habe, dass es regnet, nahm ich meinen Schirm mit. You should take your umbrella with you in case it rains.      Du solltest für den Fall, dass es regnet, deinen Schirm mitnehmen.
