Would like

¿Cómo se dice...?

"I wrote my number down and said to her if she wanted to/would like to we could meet up for a coffee."

"Apunté mi numero y le dije que si querría/le gustaría pudiéramos quedar para tomar algo."

¿O se puede decir "si querría podríamos quedar..."?

Gracias

Gracias pero lo que quiero saber es cómo se dice la frase entera.

¿Se dice... " Si quería pudiéramos quedar para tomar algo."?

Please tell me what you want to say in English first, I cannot guess what you want to say in Spanish. I mean I can, but I don't want to give a wrong answer and leave thinking you learned something new or whatever.

With proper punctuation and with the choice separated out and italicized:

I wrote my number down and said to her, if she wanted to, we could meet up for a coffee.
-or-
I wrote my number down and said to her, if she would like to, we could meet up for a coffee.

Duh.... Thanks Rusty.

1. ...si ella quisiera, podríamos juntarnos....

2. ...si le gustara, podríamos juntarnos...


Of course if the English version changes to:

...if she would like/want to meet up for a cup of coffee...

...si le gustaría/querría juntarse para un....


That's how I see it.
