Would Rather / Prefer / Had Better Dictation: Would Rather with Base Verbs

Hear would rather together before the preferred action. The next verb is a base form without to in this pattern. The speaker does not have to name the other option, so do not add one to complete the thought. Listen to any place or time phrase after the action; it makes the preference more specific. These recordings use full would forms. Keep that wording and the simple verb, rather than interpreting would as a repeated past habit or changing it to prefer.
