Grammar
Past tenses for hypothetical meaning
We use past tenses after the following expressions to describe situations in the present, past or future which are imagined or unreal:
wish / if only / It’s (high) time, would rather / sooner, would prefer, as if / though, suppose/supposing, what if
Wish + Simple Past: used to communicate the idea that you would like your circumstances (e.g. the way you look, the place you live, etc) to be different from what they are now.
Note: I wish I was / I wish I were: are both possible and acceptable, I wish I were is more formal.
I wish I lived in a hotter country.
Wish + could: used to communicate the idea that you would like to be able to do something but you can’t.
I wish I could write like you.
We cannot use would for an impossible change:
If only the earth would be was /were square.
Wish + somebody + would: used when you want somebody to do something, when you want somebody to stop doing something or when you are complaining about something annoying.
I wish he would stop talking.
Wish + Past Perfect: used to express regret for something you did or did not do in the past.
I wish I hadn’t shouted at her.
I wish I had gone to her party.
If only: it can be used instead of I wish and follows the same rules but it makes wishes more emphatic; in spoken English, only is often heavily stressed.
If only I’d taken them up on their offer.
We can put a subject between if and only for emphasis:
If only you / If you only knew what I’ve been going through.
