Would rather & Would sooner

In this lesson, we'll learn how to talk about our preferences using the phrases would rather and would sooner. These phrases help us say what we like or want to do or what we'd like other people to do. Although their meanings are similar to the phrase would prefer, their grammar is a little different.

Would sooner has the same meaning as would rather, and the two can be used interchangeably; however, would rather is much more common.

that we often use a contraction when we use would rather/would sooner in sentences and short replies.

There are two primary constructions for would rather/would sooner, each conveying different meanings. This lesson focuses on these two structures.

Would rather/would sooner + infinitive

We use would rather/would sooner + infinitive to express preferences about the present or future.

We use would rather/would sooner with an infinitive without to.

To make the negative form, we use would rather/would sooner + not + infinitive.

We use would + subject + rather/sooner + infinitive in questions to ask about the preferences of others.

We can use the form 'd rather not in short answers to questions and requests.

Would rather/would sooner + subject + past simple

We use would rather/would sooner + subject + past simple to express that we would like someone else to do something. In these structure, we use the past simple but the meaning is present or future.

Note that we use this structure when the subject before and after would rather/sooner is different.

I'd rather wait here.

I'd rather we waited here.

When forming questions with this structure, we use would + subject + rather + subject + past simple.

To make the negative form, we use would rather/would sooner + subject + didn't...

The same is true in the case of short replies.

Note that although would rather has been used in most examples in this lesson, it could be replaced by would sooner in all the sentences.
