|

Hello,
Is there any difference between: (wouldn't like to) and (would like not to) e.g:
1.I wouldn't like to talk to her now.
2.I would like not to talk to her now.
How can I negate the following sentence:
1.I would like to have some cheese. Is it:
-I wouldn't like to have some cheese.
or
-I would like not to have some cheese.  |

I would like to pass the question back to you and ask you whether you found the sentences you quoted in some reputable texts or references or you just made them up. Some of them sound unnatural or awkward. |
