Réponse: Rather ou better de lucile83, postée le 25-12-2008 à 17:55:46 (S | E)
Hello,
I'd better = je ferais mieux
I'd rather= j'aimerais mieux
suivis tous les 2 de l'infinitif sans to.
I'd rather peut être suivi du prétérit lorsqu'il y a changement de sujet:
I'd rather he came earlier.
I'd better = I had better
I'd rather = I would rather (I had rather ne s'emploie plus en anglais moderne).
Best wishes.
