GRAMMAR NOTES:
 “I would like a cup of tea” is a more polite way to say, “I want a cup of tea.”
 “I would like a cup of tea” (etc.) is often contracted to “I’d like a cup of tea” in speaking.
 “Yes, I would” is never contracted to “Yes, I’d.”
 In response to an offer, “No, thank you.” is considered more polite than “No, I wouldn’t.”
