Hi CJ, how have you been? I just would like you to take a quick look at the sentences and that’s about it.

Dan: Where do you Jeff went after getting out of prison in 2010?
Jack: He would’ve gone back home. Then he would’ve looked for a job. He would probably be around the same place that he used to live right now. He would have a house and a family. He would be having a good time with his family.

It’s just a little addition to my previous sentences. I was just wondering if I could say those extra sentences with would of probability. Thanks. That’s all.

Good afternoon CJ,


I just have a quick question. I was wondering if would of probability can be used in negative. I added a negative sentence to the previous checked sentences.

Dan: Where do you Jeff went after getting out of prison in 2010?
Jack: He would’ve gone back home. Then he wouldn’t have looked for a job right away. He would’ve started working after a few months. He would probably be around the same place that he used to live right now. He would have a house and a family. He would be having a good time with his family.


Is the use of “wouldn’t have” correct? Thank you. ??
