shall • We often use Shall I...? or Shall we...? where we are asking or suggesting what to do. Shall I put the lights on? What shall we do? Shall we goshopping? Where shall we meet tomorrow? Shall we go and see Maria?
shall • We can use Shall I...? to offer politely to do things for people. Shall I take your coat? Shall I make you some coffee? Shall I carry your bag? Shall I make your bed?
would • We often use would in expression I’d like...( = I would like) to ask for things. It is more polite than want. I’d like a return ticket, please. • We can offer things with would you like...? Would you like a drink?
would • We can use would like to talk about things that people want/do not want to do. I’d like to learn German. What would you like to do this evening? Would you like to have a big family? I wouldn’t like to be a politician.
would • We often use Would you like to...? in invitations. Would you like to come to Prague with us? • Do not confuse would like (=want) and like(=enjoy). I’d like some tea, please. Do you like green tea?
would • We often use would for a polite requests and questions. Would you openthe window, please? • We can use would to express opinion or hope. Since you ask me I'dsay the blue one is best. I think, some people wouldagree.
