I WISH USE
Storyboard Text
- Hi Sussy, I was wondering if you know how to use 'I wish'.
- Sure thing! Let me explain it to you. We can use wish + a past form to talk about a present situation we would like to be different. Also, it can be used when we imagine something unlikely or impossible, but that we would like to be true
- Oh! I see now. Like I wish you didn't live so far away.
- Indeed! I wish that too.
- Is there anything you wish to change in your life?
- I wish I had the chance move closer to your house. You see now? You are using the present form of 'I wish'
- Is there any other of 'I wish' yet for you to teach me?
- Yes, the past form. We can use wish + a past perfect form to talk about something we would like to change about the past. Or to express regret or the wish that something had happened differently, we use wishes in the past tense.
- Oh, like 'They wish they hadn't eaten so much chocolate., they're feeling very sick now.'
