"If."
In a sentence
जर तू अभ्यास केला तर यश मिळेल.
If you study, you will achieve success.
In this sentence, 'जर' is used as a conditional conjunction, equivalent to the English word 'if', to denote a condition.
जर वेळ असेल तर भेटायला ये.
If you have time, come to meet.
Here, 'जर' introduces a condition, again translating to 'if', indicating the premise for the action described.
