@bf000777966 Yes. Although context helps. I will record “I’d like to go outside” and “I like to go outside”. See if you can hear it. I spoke in my normal rate of speech.

Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand

Other reason
Yes.
The second one sounds more like "I dlike to", if that makes sense to you.
