Correct English: "I would go if I had time" Average American: "I would ...like... go if I had ...like... time" 😂 sorry for the joke 😅

"I would" is like saying "I could", or in past tense "I used to" "I would like" is like saying "I want" ex: I would go to the store. I could go to the store. I used to go to the store. (Past) I would like to see the menu. I want to see the menu.

Ok, so "I would" is conditional. As in: if I had enough money, I would travel the world. It expresses something that you would do based on a condition (in this case having enough money). "I would like" on the other hand, expresses wants or desires. As in: I would like to go to the park today. Hope this helps

Depends on a context, in some context meaning is the same. If I’m not mistaken you are asking for the difference in such a scenario? 1. I would like a cheesecake. / I would like to eat a cheesecake. 2. I would eat a cheesecake. First is used as a synonym of I want. In restaurants we would say : I would like a peach tart, please ( I want but polite form). Second is a conditional of ‘I will’. I would eat it ( but I’m on a diet). It is still something you want but you use it instinctively as ‘ would’ because for example you don’t have cheesecake at home or not 100% sure you will eat it or just cannot eat it. I would like you to go to Australia ( I want to go) I would go to Australia. ( if I have money, time) Both can be used interchangeable in a spoken language. The person’s tone of voice will determine if they want to go or just daydreaming or cannot go.
