2. Expressing a wish: (about a future desire) You dream about being a millionaire. You really want to have money to be able to buy everything you desire but it’s unreal (at least, at the present time). wish + past simple.
3. Complaining: (about a present situation)
You complain about a behavior that annoys you or express your dissatisfaction with a present
situation.
✓ We often use this kind of expression to change a certain behavior. wish + would + verb (infinitive) Complaining Remark: you do not say: “I wish I was…”, rather say: “I wish I were...”. I wish you would come earlier. I wish you would clean after you. I wish I were you... I wish my friends were here to support me... I wish I had known the answer. I wish I had woken up early. 3. Imagine you always come late to your class. Your teacher complains and tells you: “I wish you would not arrive late all the time!” Note: You can make the regret stronger by using “if only” instead of “I wish”. E.g. If only I had followed my father’s advice. [I wish I had followed my father’s advice].
