14"I like to have" ist die passende Übersetzung. Es gibt häufig Übersetzungen, wo je nach Situation die eine Formulierung passt oder die andere, und äquivalente Ausdrücke der einen Sprache sind nicht äquivalent in der anderen. "I want cake" würde ich ins Deutsche mit "Ich will Kuchen" übersetzen, nicht mit "Ich möchte Kuchen". Mit anderen Sprachen ist das genauso.– user unknownCommented Oct 3, 2021 at 16:15

4It's different in different languages. In Spanish, you say ''Dame una cerveza, por favor'' (literally, ''give me a beer please). ''Me gustaría una cerveza'' would sound very unnatural and stilted.– TomCommented Oct 4, 2021 at 0:33

11Historically, ich möchte is past subjunctive of mögen, hence literally I'd like.– David VogtCommented Oct 4, 2021 at 6:22

14The premise of this question is wrong, as mögen = to like and wollen = to want.– Björn FriedrichCommented Oct 4, 2021 at 6:56

2@userunknown Jetzt aber ich doch glatt versehentlich deinen Kommentar mit einem Upvote versehen, weil ich ihn sehr treffend finde. Aber eigentlich sollte das eine Antwort sein. :/– OlafantCommented Oct 4, 2021 at 11:11

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. word-usage), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
