I'd
Hi.
"In her recent book Overwhelmed, about the modern epidemic of busyness, Brigid Schulte describes her testy encounters with John Robinson, an academic who insists we have oodles of leisure time, really, if only we'd let ourselves see it." [From The Guardian.]
Is the contraction "I'd" formed from I would or I had in the sentence?
Thank you.
