In English, the phrases “I wish” and “If only” are often used to express regret, disappointment, or a strong desire for things to be different — either in the present, the past, or sometimes the future.

These expressions allow us to talk about unreal or imagined situations that are different from reality.

Structure Overview
Depending on the time being referred to (present, past, or future), the grammar after “I wish” or “If only” changes.

1. Regret about the past:

Structure:
I wish / If only + past perfect (had + past participle)

Meaning: You’re sorry something happened (or didn’t happen) in the past.

Example (rephrased):

If only I had remembered to update my passport in time.
(I forgot to do it, and I regret that now.)

2. Regret about the present:

Structure:
I wish / If only + past simple
(Though we’re talking about the present, we use past forms.)

Meaning: You’re unhappy with a current situation and wish it were different.

Example (rephrased):

If only it weren’t raining right now.
(It is raining, and I don’t like it.)

3. Desire for future change (less common):

Structure:
I wish + would + base verb
(Used when you’re frustrated or want something to stop or change soon.)

Example (rephrased):

I wish the snow would finally stop.
(It keeps snowing, and I want it to end.)

4. Wishing for unreal abilities or situations (present/future):

Structure:
I wish / If only + could + base verb

Meaning: You want to do something but can’t right now.

Example (rephrased):

I wish I had the ability to speak Chinese fluently.
(But I can’t, and I would like to.)

In English, we use «I wish» and «If only» to talk about situations that are not real. These expressions allow us to express regret about the past, dissatisfaction with the present, or a strong desire for change in the future. Though similar in meaning, «If only» is often more emotional or dramatic.

We use this form to talk about something that happened (or didn’t happen) in the past and we regret it.

Structure:
I wish / If only + past perfect (had + past participle)

If only I had remembered to renew my passport.
→ I forgot to renew it, and now I regret it.

I wish we had left earlier.
→ We left too late and missed something.

We use this structure when we want something to be different right now, but it’s not. It’s used to express dissatisfaction with the present reality.

Structure:
I wish / If only + past simple (was/were, did, had, etc.)

If only it weren’t raining today.
→ It is raining, and you’re not happy about it.

I wish I knew the answer.
→ I don’t know it now.

This use is for wanting a change in behavior or hoping something will stop or improve soon. It often shows annoyance or frustration.

Structure:
I wish + would + base verb
