(ستكون هناك في الساعة 5) 2. Would هي الشكل الماضي من will وتُستخدم في الحالات التالية: • للتعبير عن الاحتمالية أو الافتراض: • I would go if I had time. (كنت سأذهب لو كان لدي وقت) • كطريقة مهذبة للطلب أو الاقتراح: • Would you like some coffee? (هل تود بعض القهوة؟) • للحديث عن العادات في الماضي: • When I was a child, I would play outside every day. (عندما كنت طفلًا، كنت ألعب بالخارج كل يوم) ببساطة، will تتحدث عن المستقبل بشكل مباشر، بينما would تُستخدم في الحالات الافتراضية، الماضي، أو للتعبير عن التهذيب.
