ACCEPTING INVITATIONS
Pattern 3
I'd love to.. - a more positive way of saying "I'd like to.."; could mean "I would really like to.."
Example:
Would you like to eat lunch together?
I'd love to! Let's try that new pizza restaurant nearby.
DECLINING INVITATIONS
Pattern 4
I'd love to, but.. - a polite way to say "no" to an invitation; used to decline because you are busy at that time

Do you want to visit the park this weekend?
I'd love to, but I need to clean the house. My parents are coming.
