I was wondering if you could meet me here this afternoon.这句话的 could 是过去式,还以一种虚拟啊

问题描述:

I was wondering if you could meet me here this afternoon.这句话的 could 是过去式,还以一种虚拟啊

是对过去的虚拟,was wondering表明过去进行时,过去虚拟语气中,if引导的从句中用could,would+动词原形构成

虚拟语气吧

could用在这里是代替can的词 更礼貌一些
一般写东西will用would代替 can用could代替 是用请求的口气 "I was wondering"也是礼貌的语段
