विनम्र अनुरोध: 'Would Like' + Infinitive
infinitive का इस्तेमाल करो, ताकि तुम्हारी इंग्लिश «अच्छी» और «सम्मानजनक» लगे।
Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds
Use 'would like + to + verb' to express desires or make requests more politely than using the word 'want'.
- Always use 'to' before the second verb: 'I would like to go' (not 'I would like go').
- Use the contraction ''d' in spoken English: 'I'd like to order' sounds more natural.
- In questions, swap the subject and 'would': 'Would you like to join us?'
Overview
I want (मुझे चाहिए) कहना थोड़ा वैसा ही है जैसे कोई छोटा बच्चा खिलौने की मांग कर रहा हो? हम सभी वहां रहे हैं। आप मतलबी नहीं हैं, लेकिन अंग्रेजी में, «सीधे» और «अशिष्ट» होने के बीच की दूरी कभी-कभी स्मार्टफोन स्क्रीन से भी पतली होती है। यहीं पर would like बचाव के लिए आता है। यह वह «विनम्रता का चोगा» है जिसे आप अपनी इच्छाओं के चारों ओर लपेटते हैं ताकि वे परिष्कृत और सम्मानजनक लगें। चाहे आप डिलीवरी ऐप पर बर्गर ऑर्डर कर रहे हों, ज़ूम मीटिंग के लिए किसी सहकर्मी से पूछ रहे हों, या इंस्टाग्राम पर अपने फॉलोअर्स को बता रहे हों कि आप इस गर्मी में क्या करने की योजना बना रहे हैं, यह पैटर्न आपका सबसे अच्छा दोस्त है। यह एक रूखी मांग को एक नरम, सामाजिक रूप से स्वीकार्य अनुरोध में बदल देता है। इसे मुस्कुराते हुए धीरे से दस्तक देने और दरवाजा लात मारकर खोलने के बीच के अंतर के रूप में सोचें।How This Grammar Works
would like के बाद infinitive (to + verb रूप) एक कंडीशनल संरचना है जिसका उपयोग वर्तमान या भविष्य में किसी इच्छा या विशिष्ट चाहत को व्यक्त करने के लिए किया जाता है। जबकि want शब्द व्याकरण की दृष्टि से बिल्कुल सही है, इसमें अक्सर एक भारी, मांग वाला स्वर होता है। कल्पना करें कि आप सप्ताहांत की यात्रा के बारे में किसी मित्र को मैसेज कर रहे हैं। यदि आप कहते हैं I want to go to the beach (मैं समुद्र तट पर जाना चाहता हूँ), तो यह आपके द्वारा उनके बिना लिए गए अंतिम निर्णय जैसा लगता है। लेकिन अगर आप कहते हैं I would like to go to the beach (मैं समुद्र तट पर जाना चाहूँगा), तो यह उनके लिए सहमत या असहमत होने की जगह खोलता है। यह आपके अहंकार के प्रहार को नरम करता है। जादू इसलिए होता है क्योंकि would एक मोडल वर्ब है जो «क्षमता» या «संभावना» की एक परत जोड़ता है। यह सुझाव देता है कि आपकी एक इच्छा है, लेकिन आप इतने विनम्र हैं कि यह पहचान सकें कि दुनिया पूरी तरह से आपके इर्द-गिर्द नहीं घूमती है - भले ही आपको अभी उस आइस्ड लाटे की वास्तव में जरूरत हो। यह आपके दिमाग के लिए एक सामाजिक फिल्टर की तरह काम करता है।Formation Pattern
I, you, he, she, it, we, या they हो सकता है। सबसे अच्छी बात? would like अपना रूप कभी नहीं बदलता है! he या she के लिए कोई अतिरिक्त -s नहीं।
would like का प्रयोग करें। बोली जाने वाली अंग्रेजी और कैजुअल मैसेजिंग में, हम लगभग हमेशा इसे 'd like में छोटा कर देते हैं। इसलिए, I would like, I'd like बन जाता है, और she would like, she'd like बन जाता है।
to के बाद बेस वर्ब है। to travel, to eat, to sleep.
I would like to order the vegan pizza. (या: I'd like to order...)
would के बाद not जोड़ें। I would not like to stay out late tonight. (छोटा रूप: I wouldn't like to...)
would को आपस में बदलें। Would you like to join our Discord server?
to को अपनी क्रिया के साथ एक वफादार साये की तरह जोड़े रखें। यदि आप to भूल जाते हैं, तो वाक्य तूफान में सस्ते छाते की तरह बिखर जाता है।
When To Use It
would like + infinitive का उपयोग करते हुए पाएंगे जिसमें कोई विकल्प या लक्ष्य शामिल होता है।- ऐप्स या व्यक्तिगत रूप से ऑर्डर करना: जब आप अपने उबेर ईट्स ड्राइवर के लिए निर्देश टाइप कर रहे होते हैं, तो
I'd like to have the sauce on the sideचिल्लाते हुएI want sauce on the sideकी तुलना में बहुत अधिक पेशेवर लगता है। - पेशेवर अनुरोध करना: लिंक्डइन मैसेज या प्रोफेसर को ईमेल में, आप लिख सकते हैं:
I would like to schedule a quick call(मैं एक त्वरित कॉल शेड्यूल करना चाहूँगा)। यह दिखाता है कि आप उनके समय का सम्मान करते हैं। - महत्वाकांक्षाएं व्यक्त करना: यदि आप एक ट्रैवल व्लॉगर हैं जो «बकेट लिस्ट» वीडियो फिल्मा रहे हैं, तो आप कह सकते हैं:
I'd like to visit Tokyo by 2027(मैं 2027 तक टोक्यो जाना चाहूँगा)। यह एक सपने जैसा अधिक लगता है और किराने की सूची जैसा कम। - दूसरों को कुछ ऑफर करना: सामाजिक स्थितियों में यह बहुत बड़ा है।
Would you like to see my vacation photos?(क्या आप मेरी छुट्टियों की तस्वीरें देखना चाहेंगे?) सूर्यास्त की 500 तस्वीरों से किसी को बोर करने से पहले पूछने का विनम्र तरीका है। - निमंत्रण अस्वीकार करना: यह अशिष्ट हुए बिना «ना» कहने का सही तरीका है।
I'd like to come, but I have to finish my Netflix marathon.(मैं आना चाहूँगा, लेकिन मुझे अपना नेटफ्लिक्स मैराथन खत्म करना है)।
Common Mistakes
I would like go home। उफ़! यह कम बैटरी वाले रोबोट की तरह लगता है। आपको to जरूर शामिल करना चाहिए। एक और क्लासिक गलती would like को सामान्य वर्तमान काल like के साथ मिलाना है। यदि आप कहते हैं I like to swim, तो आप सामान्य रूप से अपने शौक के बारे में बात कर रहे हैं। यदि आप कहते हैं I would like to swim, तो आप कह रहे हैं कि आप इसी पल पानी में कूदना चाहते हैं। अपने बॉस से I like to have a raise (पैसे मिलने का सामान्य शौक?) न कहें जब आपका मतलब I would like to have a raise (कृपया मुझे अभी और पैसे दें) हो। अंत में, ing जाल से सावधान रहें। जबकि I like swimming बहुत अच्छा है, I would like swimming आमतौर पर इस विशिष्ट B1 नियम के लिए एक गलती है। सुरक्षित रहने के लिए to + verb पर टिके रहें।Contrast With Similar Patterns
आइए यह देखने के लिए एक त्वरित तुलना करें कि «इच्छा स्पेक्ट्रम» में would like कहाँ फिट बैठता है।
I want to eat: बहुत सीधा, उच्च ऊर्जा, दुकानों में या अजनबियों के साथ अशिष्ट लग सकता है। जब आप भूखे हों तो अपने भाई-बहनों या सबसे अच्छे दोस्तों के साथ इसका इस्तेमाल करें।I like eating: आपके व्यक्तित्व के बारे में एक सामान्य कथन। आपको खाना पसंद है। बढ़िया। हम सबको पसंद है।I would like to eat: विनम्र मध्य मार्ग। रेस्तरां, नए परिचितों और औपचारिक सेटिंग्स के लिए बिल्कुल सही।I feel like eating: बहुत ही अनौपचारिक। इसका उपयोग तब करें जब आप अनिर्णायक हों और फूड ऐप के माध्यम से स्क्रॉल कर रहे हों।want को एक हथौड़े के रूप में और would like को मखमल के दस्ताने के रूप में सोचें। वे दोनों एक इच्छा व्यक्त करने का काम करते हैं, लेकिन मखमल का दस्ताने उस व्यक्ति पर बहुत बेहतर प्रभाव छोड़ता है जिससे आप बात कर रहे हैं।

Smart Tips
Pause and replace 'I want' with 'I'd like'.
Look for the word 'to'. If there is a 'to' and it's a specific request, it's 'would like'.
Always use 'Would you like to...' instead of 'Do you want to...'. It sounds more generous.
Contract 'I would' to 'I'd'. Native speakers rarely say the full 'I would' in conversation.
उच्चारण
The 'd' Contraction
The 'd' in 'I'd' is very soft. It often blends into the 'l' of 'like'.
Linking 'to'
The word 'to' is usually reduced to a schwa sound /tə/.

Go to a coffee shop or a restaurant today and use 'I'd like to have...' instead of 'I want...'. Notice the reaction of the staff.
सांस्कृतिक नोट्स
British speakers use 'would like' extremely frequently to avoid appearing 'pushy'. Using 'I want' in a shop in London might be seen as quite rude.
While Americans are more direct, 'would like' is still the standard for professional service. However, 'I'll take a...' is a common neutral alternative in fast food.
In international meetings, 'I'd like to...' is the safest way to interrupt or add a point without offending colleagues from different cultures.
The word 'would' is the past tense of 'will', which originally meant 'to wish' or 'to desire' in Old English (willan).

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल (8)
Yes! If you are followed by a noun (a thing), you don't need 'to'. You only need 'to' if a verb (an action) follows.
'I'd love' is much stronger. Use it when you are very excited about an offer.
Because 'would like' is a conditional request, and English grammar requires the infinitive 'to swim' for specific future/present desires.
Not at all. It's very common to use it with friends when offering something, like 'Would you like a snack?'
The short form is 'wouldn't like'. Example: 'I wouldn't like to be late.'
In very old-fashioned or formal British English, yes. But 'would like' is the standard everywhere today.
The most polite answers are 'Yes, I would' or 'Yes, please' and 'No, thank you'.
To talk about the past, you use 'would like to have' + past participle. Example: 'I would like to have seen that movie.'
