¿Qué significa 'Would' en pasado?

Entre los significados y usos de "would" se encuentra uno que quizás no conozcas: "would" se puede utilizar para hablar del pasado. No solo se utiliza para formar el condicional, sino que también se puede usar para referirse a acciones pasadas.

Se usa "would" para hablar en pasado cuando nos referimos a acciones que realizábamos de forma repetitiva. Equivale al "pretérito imperfecto" en español.

Por ejemplo:

• Cuando yo era niño jugaba al fútbol con mis amigos en el colegio. When I was a boy, I would play football with my friends at school. ("would play" es "jugaba").
• Ella venía a mi casa todos los miércoles para ver la televisión. She would come to my house every Wednesday to watch television.
