“would like”表示“想要”,其語氣比“like”更為婉轉。具體用法如下:
1. 后面接名詞或代詞,表示“具體要”某樣東西。例如:“I'd like two sweaters for my daughters.”(我想給我的女兒們買兩件毛衣。)或“Would you like one of these mooncakes?”(你想要一塊這樣的月餅嗎?)
2. 后面接動詞不定式,表示“愿望,喜愛”,常用于有禮貌地提出邀請、請求或建議。例如:“I would like to drop maths.”(我想放棄。)或“Would you like to come to supper?”(你愿意來吃晚飯嗎?)
當主語是第一人稱時,“would”可與“should”換用,它們都可以縮寫為‘d,并且“like”也可換成“love”。例如:“I'm sure he would love to come.”(我確信他愿意來。)或“I should like the red one.”(我想要紅色的。)
“would like”后面可以用動詞不定式作賓語補足語。例如:“What would you like me to do?”(你想要我干什么?)或“I'd like you to meet my parents,too.”(我想要你也見見我的父母。)
“would”是“will”的過去時,常用來表示:
意愿,如:“They asked us if we would have a look-round first.”(他們問我想不想先去轉轉。)過去的習慣,如:“When I was a student, I would take a walk along the country road on Sunday afternoon.”(我做學生時,每逢星期天下午常沿著鄉間小路散步。)堅持,如:“I told him I didn't want the doctor, but he would send for me.”(我告訴他我不需要醫生,但他還是要請。)料想或猜想,如:“It would be 10 o'clock when he left home.”(他離開家時大概是10點左右。)能力,如:“The hall would hold 2000 people.”(那個大廳能容納5000人。)此外,“would”用于現在時,語氣比“will”要委婉,如:“Would you mind closing the door?”或“Would you like a cup of tea?”有時,“would”有“可能”的含義,如:“You wouldn’t know”(你不會知道)。
此外,“would”還可用于完成時和進行時。例如:“I thought you know. I thought Maxim would have told you.”(我以為你知道了。我以為馬克西姆會告訴你的。)
