📌 Had better

🔸 We use "had better" to refer to the present or the future, to talk about actions we think people should do. The verb form is always "had", not "have". We normally shorten it to "’d better" in informal situations. It is followed by the infinitive without to:
✅ Synonym: Should


💠 Examples:

📖 You had better discuss this issue with Bruno.

📖 It’s five o’clock. I’d better go now before the traffic gets too bad.
