Would [01]
The first meaning of this word is that it says about something which is not realistic. For example: You see a very attractive girl and suddenly a thought is in your head: I love she would be my girlfriend. [Why was "she would" - because she is out of your league - you know it] * You're having a lot of work to do and you imagine: I would relax by the sea now [You're fighting with a mountain of work so you wish] * I would lend you but I don't have any money. * I would stay at night but I have to go * I didn't give him any advise. He wouldn't have considered them. He was in terrible temper.
Would have done is the past form of would. For example: If I had his phone number, I would call him. * If I had had his phone number, I would have called him. * I wouldn't have passed the exam without your help [I imagine an unrealistic situation in the past - because you did help me prepare for the examination].
Would and will can go together in some contexts. Let's compare: I will lend you some money. I am rich now * I would lend you some money, but I have some finance troubles now * I will quit my current job. I have some potential jobs that are better. * I would quit my current job, but there is not any available job and I haven't earned enough money to buy a private house.
Someone or something wouldn't do something means they refused to do it. For example: I proposed to her but she wouldn't accept it. * The computer wouldn't start [The computer didn't start]
We also use would and used to to talk about habits in the past. For example:I would get up lately in the morning = I used to get up lately in the morning. * I would drink alcohol twice a week = I used to drink alcohol twice a week.
