[Grammar] It would/will be OK.

[kadioguy]

Isn't that the example Ems gave?

emsr2d2 says:

In a different context, "go to the university" would be OK without meaning "attend the university".

I have to go to the university later to pick up my daughter.
-------
Can I rephrase it as follows?

In your context, "go to the university" is not OK, but if in a different context, it can be OK, for example:

I have to go to the university later to pick up my daughter.

'Go to the university' is not OK in your context but can be OK in a different context like 'I have to go to the university later to pick up my daughter'.

 

[emsr2d2]

In your context, "go to the university" is not OK (no comma here) but​, [STRIKE]if[/STRIKE] in a different context, it [STRIKE]can be[/STRIKE] is/would be OK. For example:

I have to go to the university later to pick up my daughter.

See above.

b. used to express an opinion in a polite way without being forceful.

I just found that when 'would' is used in the above sense, it should be 'I would say/think/imagine/expect', which is different from the sentence you quoted.
