Explicação da Regra:

If you want to express something that you "would like to do," 想 (xiǎng) will be a very helpful auxiliary verb to know. Although similar to 要 (yào), 想 (xiǎng) will give you another more tactful option when you want to articulate a desire. The verb 想 (xiǎng) can be used to express "would like to." In this case it's an auxiliary verb. The structure is: Subj. + 想 + Verb (+ Obj.) • 你想去吗？Nǐ xiǎng qù ma? Would you like to go? • 我想吃面。Wǒ xiǎng chī miàn.I would like to eat noodles. • 你想喝水吗？Nǐ xiǎng hē shuǐ ma? Would you like to drink some water? • 我们想看电视。Wǒmen xiǎng kàn diànshì.We would like to watch TV. • 他想买一个大房子。 Tā xiǎng mǎi yī gè dà fángzi.He would like to buy a big apartment.
