Grammar

Let's see how we make sentences with “would like”. Watch short videos and repeat the example sentences after me.

"Would like” is a polite way to say that we want something. “Would like” is the same for all persons. In positive sentences, we say: I would like, you would like, he would like, she would like, it would like, we would like, you would like, they would like. For example: "I would like to check in." or "She would like to check in."

I would like to check in

She would like to check in

_ _____ ____ __ _____ __

___ _____ ____ __ _____ __

Chtěl bych se ubytovat

Chtěla by se ubytovat

In negative sentences, we add "not" to "would", so we say "would not". This is the same for all persons. For example: "I would not like to stay in a double room.", "She would not like to stay in a double room."

I would not like to stay in a double room

She would not like to stay in a double room

They would not like to stay in a single room

_ _____ ___ ____ __ ____ __ _ ______ ____

____ _____ ___ ____ __ ____ __ _ ______ ____

Nechtěl bych zůstat v dvoulůžkovém pokoji

Ona by nechtěla zůstat v dvoulůžkovém pokoji

Oni by nechtěli zůstat v jednolůžkovém pokoji

"Would like" can also have short forms. The short form of “I would” is "I’d". For example: "I would like to check in" or "I’d like to check in". The short form of "would not" is "wouldn't". So we can say: "I would not like to stay in a single room" or "I wouldn’t like to stay in a single room".

I'd like to check in

She'd like to check in

I wouldn't like to stay in a double room

She wouldn't like to stay in a double room
