TRANSCRIPT:
I hope to pass the test. I hope I passed the test. I hope that I passed the test. They all sound okay, right? But are they all correct? Well, in this lesson, I'm going to tell you the difference between hope and wish, I'm going to teach you how to use these verbs in the past, present, and future, and I'm going to answer that question. Are you ready?
Can you see the difference in the meaning of hope and wish here? I hope I get a promotion this year. The boss said he's delighted with my work. I wish I could get a promotion, but I've only been working here for two months. Well, we use hope for something that we want or desire, but for something that is very likely or possible. Happy boss = promotion this year. It's possible. We also use wish for things we want or desire. But here's the important difference. We use it for things that are very unlikely or impossible, like a promotion after two months? Not very likely.
Now, as you'll see in the rest of this video, there are many ways to use wish and hope depending on the tense, so watch carefully.
And when you've finished the video, download the exam prep PDF where you get three exercises of a B2/C1 level to test your knowledge of hope and wish in all the tenses that we're going to look at in this lesson. It's free and you can download it by clicking the link in the description.
So the different tenses we're going to look at today are hope in the present, hope in the future, hope in the past, and wish in the present, wish in the future, and wish in the past. There's a lot to cover, so I'll keep it brief. Let's go.
Hope, with the present simple tense, refers to something we want in the present or in the future. For example, I hope you have your passport with you. This is referring to hope and a present situation, having the passport. I hope now you have your passport with you.Now.
Okay, look at this sentence. I hope it doesn't rain later. Again, we're using the present tense with hope. I hope it doesn't rain. But we're clearly talking about the future, later. That's fine. It's possible that it won't rain later, so we can use this structure. I hope the train arrives on time. Again, we're talking about a future event that is very possible, so we can use this I hope + present simple structure.
Now, in those two examples, we're talking about different subjects. I hope you have your passport. I hope it doesn't rain later. But if we're using the same subject, we can also use the structure, hope + the infinitive. The students hope to finish their project by next week. She hopes to get the job. In those situations, we're talking about the same subject. The students hope that the students finish the project. She hopes that she gets the job. When that happens, it's really common to use the structure, hope + to do something.
Before we continue, let me answer a very common question. Is it, I hope? Or, I hope that? Well, in all of those, hope + present tense situations that we have just looked at, we don't have to use the word that, but we can if we want to. It sounds more formal when we use that, so we tend to use it in formal situations or written English, but in everyday conversational English because it's quicker to not use that.

Greg, I am a 60+ year old American and my only language is English. Languages, though, have always fascinated me. Your videos are wonderful and I learn a lot of tidbits that I never realized about our crazy language. It amazes me that anyone is ever able to learn to speak it. ☺ There are so many subtleties that native speakers are unaware of; somehow we just know. Keep up the great work you do!
Your post was a kind of relief for me, as I'm being Russian and have some problems exactly with the English subtleties. If native English speakers have some problems with their native language, the more it's natural for me.
@@robinhood5935 Привет! Как дела? You provably have also seen someone in your country who have issues with Russian. Maybe even you yourself have some issues with your mother tongue (русский), so don't push yourself to hard. Take it easy and keep learning and you will develop your English skills more and more. Just keep studying and enjoying the process! Wishing you success!
PS: I am not an English native speaker, but just like you, I keep studying, but not pushing myself too hard as before I realized even natives don't know their language perfectly.)
@@DanielSilva-kf7dz Thank you for your kind words and good wishes. I'm not going to stand still in my English studies. English is a tool for me that enables me to communicate with the world, read, and write. Of course, I'm far from perfect in English but I'm not feeling upset about the fact. I keep running for my dream, so to speak. I realize that it's a life-long journey. Don't know what makes you think I'm 'pushing too hard'. I guess I apply just reasonable effort in my English, not overstraining myself. In my turn, I wish you all the best and every success in English.
@@robinhood5935 Sorry, I might have misunderstood when you said "Your post was a kind of relief, and ""I have some problems". I apologize for my misunderstanding. But it is good that you are confident. Keep up the good work! Good wishes to you too!
@@DanielSilva-kf7dz Nothing to apologize for. It's OK. Thank you.
There are so many interesting topics in English grammar:)
Greg, your videos inspire me for the the way you approach them. it's clear you like teaching.
Considering to take your course......thanks 🙏
Great revision lesson on hope/wish.... interesting how you switched from simple preset - past simple - past perfect then simply add wish!
I wish I had met you before!
How did I just discover your channel now??😱😱😱 I loved it.
Thank you very much Greg!
Greg, thanx for this wonderful video!❤
This lesson cleared my confusion about the using of this two words in sentences. From now on I will follow your video.
I wish I could notice it earlier.
I hope your lesson helps me more learning English.
Thank you for your caring with your very good and informative videos.
Happy new year, teacher!😊💐🙏
So when we say "We wish you a Merry christmas" , means that it'll be unlikey or impossible to happen?
😂😂😂😅
Becoz it's another meaning of the word wish.
The structure here is to wish somebody something and for this use, the wish part is in the present....I wish you good luck I wish you happiness in your new home....I wish you a good Christmas (I hope that you have a good Christmas)
However, the more common use of the verb wish is to talk about things we would like to be different from how they are now and that we have regrets about the present situation.....I wish I were rich, I wish I could go on holiday, I wish I had a new car....in this context we use the Past Simple.
Obviously when we use wish to talk about regrets etc we don't wish somebody something....I wish you good luck in your exam
No. Hahaha. We wish you is a greeting. Different in that respect. We wish you good Fortune. Two or more are sending good wishes for you...as a greeting or bestowing upon you .
And it's what really happens every year😅
Could you please make a video with the causative verb ❤ I will appreciate it. Thank you for this video
You are absolutely and incontestably the best!
What a great video, thanks 🎄🎄🎄
Thank you! You are the best.
Thank you :)
Thanks and MERRY CHRISTMAS
Thank you so much for this video! They're super helpful!

you are amazing😊😊
Great job!
Greetings from the DR.
Best teacher in the world
Hii)) I have a question)) Is it possible to make a video explanation about word formation? about suffixes and prefixes and how to understand what to use and when...
Hi Greg, I am a new subscriber and I love your channel. Thank you a lot. May I ask what camera you are using?
SO, wish + past simple is the same as the 2nd conditional?
Dear Sir ,
Might ai trouble you for a question? I have to say :
I wish she WERE here ( subjunctive mode).
When I use continuous for , I have to use was or were ? They wish it wasn’t raining outside or they wish it weren’t outside ?
I wish I weren’t going to the destiny’s tomorrow or I wish I wasn’t going to the … Is it not correct to use “were” instead of “was”?
Does one not use the subjunctive mood? Thank you
again very entertaining. Even for me as a German 😜
Thank's 👍
11:40 You mentioned wish + Future Situations. For example you said; I wish my friend wasn't leaving the country tomorrow. Shouldn't it be past continuous structure ? But you said past simple. I am confused. @EnglishWithGreg
I've read in one grammar book that I wish + inf means It's a pity that I am not ... I wish to be a snowman=It's a pity I'm not a snowman. I wish to smoke less=It's a pity that I don't smoke less. etc. Is it true?
Happy new year 2024
I wish I had found this channel before!
I am confused about hope + past and past participle can we use “ we hope +past tens “or we shouldn’t use !? As like hope +will ?!
I have a question: isn't it more correct to use the form "...wish he WERE..." rather than "...wish he WAS...", i mean, is the second form a more colloquial one?
I hope to have passed my test next week
Is there any difference? In meaning?
And
I wish she would not quit the job./ she was not going to quit the job
They refer future also.?
I hope you can catch the bus on time.
I have a party tomorrow, I hope the weather will be like today.
Thank you.
Nice, but if I say, "I wish you a great future!", it expresses a wish about future and it is not past tense, but only present. And "I wish you to know that you are important.", is thtis grammarly wrong? As much as I know, this is also correct, isn't it? It also expresses something about future, right?
Where are you Mr. Greg ? Missing you😢
Hi, can we also say " I wish it didn't raim"? Thanks in advance
Hi Greg hope you are doing well. I have a question about my confusion. If you could please help me. What is correct, ....OF HIM, ....OF HIS ....OF YOU,......OF YOURS ETC. Kindly help with solving this issue.
None
👍
I wish you had correctly named "9:26 Wish + Could". I hope you rename it to "9:26 Wish + Would".
Hello from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙋🙋
I have doubts regarding "double inversion" (i named it that way)
What is the correct way to ask the question :
Can you tell me what you did?
Or
Can you tell me what did you do?
I would like to read more examples regarding this topic, various questions can help me comprehend it better :)
(unnecessarily with "what", it can be "why" and different kind of questions, furthermore i think it would be quite entertaining to watch because i have almost always enjoyed learning English and I started making the huge progress, i had started learning English one year ago)
Edit :
The language is like puzzle, i have to constantly put the words in right places with correct forms , it is like a maths or a game when you have to be focused on the action and every word
Edit 2:
I am really sorry for my mistakes, could someone point them out to me?
Edit 3:
I still have to learn several thousand words , because when I watch news or TV in English (even if i spent many hours learning language)
I dont comprehend words like "fork" or "spoon", there are too many words in the language , thus i should continue studying
I talked with someone in English approximately ten times in my entire life.
Maybe 20, maybe 30, and i am not used to speaking or writing in English so i can make errors, retrieving things, words from my memory in the right moment is quite difficult especially that i feel that using English is a little bit artficial compared to my native language
On the other hand maybe it will change itself, fortunately over time i feel more comfortable with the language even if i confuse tenses or words, or speaking is difficult.
Couldn't get free worksheet
You could've mentioned something about the following usage: "I wish I were dead".
present continuous*
Isn't it more correct to say I wish it WEREN'T raining when talking about something impossible?
I understand that both ways are correct to use, being the one you are mentioning the most proper one, however, you are going to be understood whether you use one or the other
