HELL0 ADAM, CAN I ASK YOU A QUICK QUESTION?
UUMH I SEE, LET ME HELP YOU WITH THAT
I WAS WONDERING IF YOU KNOW THE CORRECT USE OF "I WISH"
WE USE"I WISH" TO TALK ABOUT THINGS WHICH WE WANT BUT WICH ARE NOT POSSIBLE, TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO BE DIFFERENT IN THE PRESENT OR THE FUTURE. IT'S USED FOR THINGS WHICH ARE IMPOSSIBLE OR VERY UNLIKELY.
CAN YOU GIVE ME SOME EXAMPLES?
ON THE OTHER HAND, WE USE 'WOULD' WITH 'WISH' IN A LITTLE BIT OF ASPECIAL WAY. IT'S GENERALLY USED ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING (OR NOT DOING) SOMETHING THAT WE DON'T LIKE AND WE WANT THAT PERSON TO CHANGE.
WE CAN USE 'WISH' WITH THE PAST PERFECT TO TALK ABOUT REGRETS FROM THE PAST. THESE ARE THINGS THAT HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED BUT WE WISH THEY'D HAPPENED IN A DIFFERENT WAY. THIS USE OF 'WISH' IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE THIRD
I WISH THAT I HAD A BIG HOUSE, I DON'T HAVE A BIG HOUSE, BUT IT'S A NICE IDEA!.
I WISH I HAD STUDIED MORE IN SCHOOL INSTEADOF WASTING MY TIME SWIMMING.
I WISH THAT JOHN WOULDN'T EAT ALL THE CAKE.
SEE YOU CLARA!
THANK YOU ADAM, YOU ARE AMAZING. SEE YOU LATER!
