Would

I convinced him to offer a broad perspective on some bullet points, in hopes that the subject would be demystified a little bit and that Quora would perhaps enjoy a little peek behind the curtain.

Are the woulds in the sentence above past of will? Thank you.

Anonymous Are the woulds in the sentence above past of will? Yes, and in view of the fact that "in hopes that" is used, and later "perhaps", you could substitute "might" for "would" and get nearly the same meaning. CJ
