Hi,
Please refer to the following dialogue. I don't understand why Thomas is using 'would be fine' instead of 'will be fine'. Is he not sure whether he would get the appointment?
Thomas: I was wondering if I could get an appointment. I have a tooth that has been bothering me for a while.
Receptionist: Well, if you are free this afternoon, we have had a cancellation for three 'o' clock.
Thomas: That would be fine.
Thanks,
MG.
