English Grammar -Modal Verbs - Would / 情態助動詞 Would

◇ Modal Verbs - Would 
 情態助動詞 Would


  Would 除了可以表達較委婉的意願、在過去的某段時間將要做某事,也可以表達在過去的某段時間當中的「習慣」(habits in the past)。當 Would 用來表達過去的習慣時,句子中通常會有頻率副詞的出現唷!例如 he would always say... 意思就是「他總是會說...」。「總是會說」就代表當時他一直都有這麼說的習慣。注意 would 大多會加上一般動詞來表達這個意思,而不會接 be 動詞表達過去的習慣。讓我們來看看其他例句熟悉一下這個用吧~


Example:


1. He would always turn and wave at the end of the street.

  她總會在街的盡頭轉過來揮手。


2. During summer, I would usually go skiing with my besties.

  夏天我經常會跟死黨去滑雪。


3. She would always come up with an excuse for being late.

  她總是會為了遲到而找藉口。
