There is no word as such for would in Spanish, it is translated as a suffix that is added to the infinitive of the verb in question. Would regret is lamentaría, would eat = comería, would go= iría ... and so on. Hope this helps.

Then I can say if you eat fish, I would eat fish too.
Si tu comes pescado, tambien comeria pescado. Would eat= comeria Would egret= lamentaria would go= iria. Mary, you have other way for use the word (Would). Thanks you.

As María says, look up the conditional mood in a grammar book if you have one. Would makes the verb conditional (I would do X if I had Y), and to do the same thing in Spanish, just add an ía to the end of the infinitive.
would regret lamentaría
