Wish & If Only
- We use WISH and IF ONLY to talk about non-real things we want to be real. We use these structures to imagine the situations we desire.
- – “I wish I had more free time.”
- – “If only I was younger!”
- We use WISH/IF ONLY+PAST SIMPLE to talk about things we want to be different in the PRESENT:
- – “Karen wishes she lived closer to her mother.”
- – “If only we were together right now!”
- We use WISH/IF ONLY+PAST PERFECT to talk about things we want to be different in the PAST:
- – “If only I had known your car had broken down!”
- – “Andrea wishes she had studied chemistry in university.”
- – “Caroline and Amber wish they had been born fifty years earlier.”
- – “If only you had been there to see the basketball game, you would have loved it!”
- We use WISH/IF ONLY+WOULD(N’T) to show annoyance or that something is bothering us.
- – “I wish you wouldn’t talk so loud!”
- – “If only Amelia wouldn’t chew with her mouth open, I could enjoy this meal!”
- – “I wish Sam wouldn’t borrow my clothes without asking.”
- We can make questions with WISH by placing DO first, then the SUBJECT, then WISH:
- – “Do you wish you made more money?”
- – “Does Lynn wish I had visited her when she was in the hospital?”
- – “Don’t you wish Arthur would stop sending text messages at strange times?”
