0 Guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 omission? Awesome topic idea. I think I could easily write a riddle about that, though, without using the word (my personal opinion). So, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 should Oooooh!!!!! Now you're SO close, I ought to give it to you. But, you see, it's kind of hard to distinguish between your word and mine. Yours probably fits the riddle better than mine. But, humor me and try to think of mine. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) You have the answer: WOULD. Yes, to find a difference between the three is tough, huh?could or would?

0 Guest Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) There is a word, I can’t seem to explain, Without accidentally using it again. How can you explain would? Something about the past, but future realigned. To have been done, if you were so inclined. I would have done that, if I had seen into the future(which is now the past). Sometimes regret, is often my thought. Or a passing idea that maybe one ought. I regret that I didn't do that. the difference between would and should is, "I should do that" vs. "I would have done that." (Future vs. past). Yay! My first one right!

What about "should have done"? I think the best answer for it is could-- was able to do (but didn't, unless speaking hypothetically) would-- wanted to do (but didn't, unless speaking hypothetically) should-- needed to do (but didn't, unless speaking hypothetically) Can you tell what I do for a living?

I don't think WOULD has to do with want, but rather, has to do with the word "if", which I SHOULD have added, if I "Could" have thought of , but I "Didn't."
