<blockquote>
  <p>如果我没去上班就一起朋友去玩</p>
</blockquote>

<p>From my answer to this question <a href="https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/39304/meaning-in-context">Meaning in context</a></p>

<blockquote>
  <p>it is a very common grammar structure</p>
  
  <p>[如果 X 就 Y] = [If X then Y]</p>
</blockquote>

<p>[1: 如果] [X: 我没去上班] [2: 就] [Y: 一起朋友去玩]</p>

<p>[1: if ] [X: I don't go to work] [2: then ] [Y: together friend to go play]</p>

<p>The major problem is  "<strong>一起</strong>朋友去玩" (<strong>together</strong> friends to go play)</p>

<p>It should be "<strong>和</strong>朋友一起去玩" (go to play <strong>with</strong> friends together)</p>

<p>[和 + (noun) 一起] = [with + (noun)  together] is also a common grammar structure. And you can drop "一起" and write: "<strong>如果我没去上班就和朋友</strong>(<em>一起</em>)<strong>去玩</strong>" because it is strongly implied with the present of 和</p>

If that's what you mean in English, then the Chinese translation is correct.

From my answer to this question [Meaning in context](https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/39304/meaning-in-context)

> it is a very common grammar structure
>
> [如果 X 就 Y] = [If X then Y]

[1: 如果] [X: 我没去上班] [2: 就] [Y: 一起朋友去玩]

[1: if ] [X: I don't go to work] [2: then ] [Y: together friend to go play]

The major problem is "**一起**朋友去玩" (**together** friends to go play)

It should be "**和**朋友一起去玩" (go to play **with** friends together)

[和 + (noun) 一起] = [with + (noun) together] is also a common grammar structure. And you can drop "一起" and write: "**如果我没去上班就和朋友**(*一起*)**去玩**" because it is strongly implied with the present of 和
