Preference (would rather/had better) exercises online (Typing Practice)
Practise the advanced subjunctive structure would rather + subject + past tense, used when you want someone else to do or not do something (I'd rather you came tomorrow). Also learn would rather + subject + past perfect for regret about past actions (I'd rather you hadn't said that), and the alternative structure would prefer + object + to-infinitive (I'd prefer you to come). This set combines all preference structures in real-world contexts.
