變化形
woulding

1.
會,將會
用於過去的觀點,表示某人當時預期、答應或願意會做某事;也常是 will 的過去式。
用法:後面接原形動詞,不接 to。若原句是 will,轉述為過去時時通常改為 would。
It would rain on Sunday.
星期天會下雨。
Mom said she would pick me up after school.
媽媽說她放學後會來接我。
還有 4 個進階的意思(國小之後才會學到)
2.
會,將會
用於假設或條件句的主要子句,表示在某個條件成立時可能發生的結果。
用法:常用句型是 If + 過去式,would + 原形動詞。即使談未來,if 子句通常不用 would。
If I had more time, I would join the school music club.
如果我有更多時間,我會加入學校的音樂社。
It would be easier to take a bus if it rains.
如果下雨,坐公車會比較方便。
3.
想要;願意
用於禮貌地表達想要、偏好、邀請、提供或請求。
用法:would like 後面接名詞或 to + 原形動詞;Would you like...? 用於邀請或提供。Would you...? 可用於禮貌請求。
Would you please close the window before we leave?
我們離開前,麻煩你把窗戶關上好嗎?
Would you like to come to our festival dinner?
你想來參加我們的節日晚餐嗎?

4.
會,老是
表示過去經常發生的動作,或某人過去一貫的行為。
用法:此義後面接表示動作的原形動詞,例如 visit、play、walk。不宜說 would know 或 would live 來單純表示過去的狀態;此時通常用 used to。
When we were kids, we would buy snacks at the night market on Fridays.
我們小時候,每週五都會在夜市買點心。
My grandfather would always tell us stories after dinner.
我爺爺晚餐後總會講故事給我們聽。
5.
會;就是不肯
表示某人願意做某事;用於否定句時,常強調某人不肯或怎樣都不願意做某事。
用法:would not 常縮寫為 wouldn't。此義的 would not 不只是單純的未來否定,也可表示「不肯」。
My computer would not turn on, so I could not finish my homework.
我的電腦無法開機,所以我不能完成作業。
He would not say sorry even after he knew what happened.
即使他知道發生了什麼事,他還是不肯說對不起。

學習提示
・would 沒有單一固定的中文翻譯。先看句型:假設句常是「會」;would like 常是「想要」;過去習慣常是「以前常會」。
・在口語和非正式書寫中,would 常縮寫為 'd,例如 I'd like some tea、she'd help if she could。
・Would you like...? 是「你想要……嗎?」或「要不要……?」;Would you...? 則多半是請對方做事。
