WOULD LIKE

The use of WOULD LIKE in English corresponds to the easy one. That is, to the conditional one. However, sometimes the Spanish translation will make you believe that it is a different verb, since it allows several possibilities in its interpretation. In reality, it only has one function, which is to transform the verb to want to sound less direct and, most importantly, more polite.
