Talking about Willingness

To talk about your willingness and unwillingness you can use the modal verb would. When we are unwilling to do something we use the negative form of these modal verbs. In this case, all we have to do is to add the term not to the modal verb would.

Using will to talk about willingness is not the most common way, because the modal verb will is mostly used to talk about future plans though it can also refer to things you tend to do in the future.

There is an expression to indicate your desires in English. That would be called 'to be willing to do something'. Check out the examples for more clarification.

The verb 'will' as a main verb can be followed by a to-infinitive verb to mean to cause or urge someone to do something or something to happen. Check out the examples.

'Would like' is an expression to show you like something or you are willing to do it. So you have to be capable of diagnosing the tense of sentences with the modal 'would'. They may include the past modal verb 'would', but the meaning is in the present tense.

We can use the main verb 'want' to indicate we are eager or willing to do something. As you know, after the main verb want we should have an infinitive with 'to'.
