Hi Ana
I don’t understand what is the difference between ‘ I wish + simple past and ‘I wish I had + past participle. Could you help me please?
Hi, Ana, I am so happy to have you on my email. congratulations! And god bless you so much!
In many ways, I am more angered by the so called generic
spammer” than by the more obvious spammer. Why?
at least the spammer is more open and honest with their spam!
I know who they are. The generic commenter is a liar and a charlatan You can probably notice that I have very strong opinions
towards this group of people
It’s correct to say: “If only I had had one chance”?
I want to mean something like: “Ah, se eu tivesse tido uma chance”.
Thanks!
I already improved a lot my english since I started follow inglesonline.com.br
I wish i lived in Brazil!!!!!!
Maybe soon i’ll be there…
Hi Ana!!! I really appreciate your work!
I have a question.. in this podcast o said ‘ you wish your present situation WERE different ‘ … is that correct? or we should use WAS?
Congrats

Great examples, everybody!! THanks;)
I wish I had begun to listen more podcasts before. Certainly, I’d be a fluent english person.
Hi Victor,
You can say “I’d certainly be fluent in English by now”
If I had estudied Spanish before, today I’d be speaking Spanish fluently.
If only I had studied at College, maybe I’d have more chances to work as an English Teacher.
If only I had learned to cook, I wouldn’t need to buy food everyday.
I wih I had studied more while I was at college.
I wish I had started learning how to play the guitar so much earlier.
If only I had practiced more the piano when I was younger I’d be able to play it well today.
Marilia,
I, too, used to have piano classes when i was a child… I don’t know about you but I didn’t really apply myself too much!
I wish I had known your web page before.
If I had known your web page before I would be speaking English better.
If only I had studied English in High School I wouldn’t be able to understand you at this time.
If I had studied English before, today I’d be speaking English fluently.
Great example, Luis. But come on, there was probably a good reason you didn’t do it before. ;)
If only I had saved money since I was a child maybe I’d have money enough to buy a new car! :D
If only I had knew Podcastas ingles online before!
Hi Magna,
It’s never too late;)
Say “if only I had known…”
