It would seem there is a good deal of truth in this idea.
请问这里的it would seem 比直接用it seems有哪些不同? 有过去以后时有哪些用途吗?
It would seem there is a good deal of truth in this idea.
【翻译】这个想法好像有不少道理。
1. will 和 would 都可以用来表示对目前的推断。是说话人对所言状况不十分一定的一种猜测。will 的可能性比 would 要大。
2. 用 It seems 换掉 It would seem 完全可以，而且在翻译上也看不出什么不同，但后者的意思愈加表明说话人对我们的推断不敢一定，显示婉转，留有空间。
