Grammar
Would have/had
Hello,
I've heard some people use "would have" in place of "had"..
For example,
If you had done that, it could have been better.. --- this is right I assume?
In place of the above, people say "If you would have done that,....." --- Is it right to use "would have" in place of "had" like this?
Thanks,
Prasanna

Prasanna, that is becoming more and more common in casual speech, but it is still not acceptable formally.
