    Will and Would


    A modal auxiliary verb is used to modify the mood of a verb. Here is a list of the modal
    auxiliary verbs:

    Will:
    “Will” is used when you are volunteering to do something in the future, or when
    you are deciding at the time of speaking to do something in the future. The negative of
    will is “will not” or the contraction “won’t” (See “Using will and going” in the future
    tense folder of the advanced section of this website for more information on “will”).

    Example: I will cook dinner.

    In this example “will” is used to volunteer to cook dinner in the future.

    Example: I think I will go to the beach this Sunday.

    In this example “will” is used to express a future action that is being decided upon at the
    time of speaking.

    Directions: Make your own sentences using “will”.

    1. Juan David will be the love of my life: Juan David


    sera el amor de mi vida
    2. soon we will go to the cinema: De pronto iremos a
    cine
    Would:
    “Would” has several functions. First, it functions as the past tense of “will”.
    Second, it functions as the conditional mood of “will”. Third, it is used to be polite. The
    negative of would is “would not” or the contraction “wouldn’t”.

    Example: I would try to act like my father when I was young.

    In this example “would” functions as the past tense of “will”.

    Example: I would get a tan if I worked at the pool.

    In this example “would” functions as the conditional mood of “will”.

    Example: I would like more tea please.

    In this example “would” is used to be polite.

    Directions: Circle the correct auxiliary modal verb in each sentence.

    2) I am feeling tired. I think I (would, will) go to sleep now.
