Who is 'the killer cucumber'? I want to see him!


Thank you.
He's very cute!^^

But he's actually innocent ! He was falsely accused of murder, when the culprits were actually german sprouts.

Who's to blame? The Germans of course. OK. But don't mention the war! ;-)

initially, it was the Germans who blamed the Spaniards and falsely accused the cucumber...

it is indeed a subjunctive. would+have+-ed expresses a supposition on the past.
A past conditional...
