If you form a sentence with ‘would’ in English, you will likely need a specific verb form in French: <\/strong>le conditionnel.<\/em> <\/strong> <\/p>\n In French, the conditionnel is used to express a wish, doubt, a suggestion, or a possibility.<\/p>\n Time for some example sentences!<\/p>\n I would like to have more free time. I wonder if this is the right decision. She could ask her colleague for help. She would invite you to her birthday. I would have liked to visit the Louvre when I was in Paris. Without Marie, he would always have arrived late.
