Wishes and Hopes
- What’s the Difference? ‘I wish’ refers to lofty or unrealistic dreams. Most of the time when we use ‘I wish’, we want something that is impossible, or that doesn't seem likely. We may even feel sorry that things are not different. Some examples are:
- I wish I had a million dollars.
- I wish I could fly to the moon.
- I wish my sister could be here now.
- I hope Jane gets better.
- I hope it stops raining soon.
- I hope my son comes back from the war.
