This sentence, said by Simba's wicked uncle Scar when he heard that Simba's father didn't allow him to go to the shadowy place, is excerpted from the movie " Lion King I ".
We usually use "would have" to talk about lost opportunity.
So here in this sentence mentioned in the title, does it mean that you have a chance to find it out, but you have lost the chance?
But in the translated version in our native language, it says that means you'll find out it in the future.
I doubt if the translation is correct. Anyone help me, please.
