Both "would" and "will" are modal verbs.
This means that we employ them in conjunction with other verbs to discuss ideas like potential, duty, recommendation, and requesting permission.
The primary distinction between will and would is that the former is applied to actual possibilities while the latter is applied to hypothetical future circumstances.
Use of the word "will"
Let's first examine a few instances in which the modal word will is used in English:
Using "will" to provide future information
Will is frequently used to express or request future information, as in We'll go home after work.
How soon will they arrive?
Using "would" to discuss past behaviours;
Might also work as a substitute for "used to."
So, we can use it to discuss routine activities that we used to engage in:
We would go hiking frequently when we lived in the highlands.
