英语词源

would
would: [OE] Would goes back to wold-, the Old English past tense of will. Its vowel is inherited from the Indo-European variant *wol- (as in German wollen ‘will, want’), rather than the *wel- that produced the English present form will. Its use as an auxiliary to form the conditional dates back to the Old English period.
=> will
would
Old English wolde, past tense and past subjunctive of willan "to will" (see will (v.)). Would-be (adj.) "wishing to be, vainly pretending" is first recorded c. 1300.

词语辨析

【would, used to】
这组词都有“过去惯常,过去总是”的意思,其区别是:
would: 指过去经常发生的行为,主观感情色彩较浓,只表过去惯常行为,既不表状态也不表持续动作。不含“过去如此,现在不再这样”的意味。
used to: 指客观地表示过去的习惯,既可是过去经常发生的动作,又可是过去一向存在的状态,比would通俗,往往含今昔感。
