Practice some more with these sentences: 1. I wish I could fly like a bird. 2. I hope the transfer student is a girl. (transfer student = 전학생) 3. I wish I had a lot of money. 4. I wish I could play the piano well. 5. I wish Mom would come home quickly. Answers: 1. 새처럼 날 수 있었으면 좋겠어요. 2. 전학생이 여자였으면 좋겠어요. 3. 돈이 많았으면 좋겠어요. 4. 피아노를 잘 칠 수 있었으면 좋겠어요. 5. 어머니가 빨리 집에 오셨으면 좋겠어요.

Can confirm the use of past tense for wishes in German as well! Ich wünschte ich hätte viel Geld = I wish I had a lot of money

I think in Cantonese and Mandarin, there isn’t really necessarily a tense when wishing for something. For the car example, it would be the same word (to have a car) in Chinese. There are two ways to express a wish though. Directly: I wish I had a car. Indirectly: If I had a car that would be good. In the first, there is no tense change. In the second, the “would be good” becomes past tense but not the verb “to have/had”. Baha but it’s more like complex, such as I wish I never loved you... Then it is said “if I never “to not have” loved you that would be good”. The verb is placed in past tense.

In Spanish we have this tense that is used SPECIFICALLY to express hopes, which is called Pretérito Imperfecto, and it's literally the hardest tense to conjugate for non-native speakers (even for native speakers too). But in English and Korean is so much easier, I'm so happy haha

In French its a special mode, conditionnel which is quite near from past tense. Its more usual form (conditionnel présent) have a future first part then imperfect designance ( -ais, ais, -ait, -ions, -iez, -aient) : j'aurais (I would have), j'aimerais (I would like) . You have a past form of conditionnel ( auxillary être/be or avoir/have)+ participe passé : j'aurais eu.../J'aurai aimé...

In Spanish we use the subjunctive, which is an entirely different set of tenses and it's used for wishes, possibilities, hypothesis, anything that isn't certain. You can find something similar with the use of past and present to express how something is more or less real, there's also a future subjunctive but it's something you'll usually find in legal writing, hardly ever in conversation It's often to see it in composed sentences with a verb in conditional tense and another one in subjunctive If I were a rich man (Daidle deedle daidle daidle daidle deedle daidle dumb) I wouldn't have to work hard Si yo fuera (past subjunctive) rico No tendría (conditional) que trabajar Also, it's good to have you back :)

We technically use subjunctive in English as well, although people aren't really aware of it since we don't really have unique subjunctive verb forms.

Hi, I'm from Hungary and while I was listening to your explanation I was also thinking of how we use I wish and I hope in a sentence and there are two ways that popped up in my mind: 1) Bárcsak sikerülne (roughly: bárcsak= a word that cannot really be translated to English but it expresses the fact that you are wishful about something; and a verb in conditional so basically a verb with (으)면 since -na/-ne/-ná/-né are equal with (으)면) = I wish it would work out. 2) Remélem, hogy sikerülni fog. (roughly: remélem= I hope; hogy= that; sikerülni fog: it will work out = we use future tense when we are wishing for something that hasn't happened yet) sometimes we use past tense instead of future tense regarding the second usage for example when you had already taken an exam and say: i wish i succeeded, i wish it worked out = Remélem, hogy sikerült. but never when you are before the exam in time. Sorry for the lengthy comment. Have a nice day xx

안녕하세요 크리스토퍼입니다. 선생님 고마워요~~~! 저는 한국말 잔 못해요. 죄송합니다. So I'll have to stick to English for the most part for now. lol. Hahaha! I wish they loved me. It's like we're saying "I wish they 'past' in the 'future'." lol. I never thought about that before. When I found this video I was looking for a 한국말, 한국어 word for "Hope". Like just the feeling of "hope" or having "hope" things will get better. Is it actually 희망? "Hee-mahng" romanized as (hi-mang). (I don't think comparing to one's own language's characters is a good idea, but since you can't hear me I had to use something. ㅋㅋㅋ) 감사합니다 for the lesson. :-) ^_^

What you are thinking of are called conditional sentences. And yes, other languages do the same thing. Yo deseo que tenga mucho dinero = I wish I had a lot of money But it isn't past tense in spanish really. They have separate past tense from the conditional tense. I just wasn't aware of that in korean. Good to know. Welcome back

So happy you're back 선생님! Super helpful video as always ^.^ In Norwegian we also use past tense for wishing, but not if we specifically wish for something in the future. But in Korean it's the same for both cases? Thinking of the weather example.

It seems to me, that although you could use the past tense for wishes in English, the subjunctive mood is slightly more natural (as in “I wish I were taller“) rather than the past tense (“I wish I was taller“). Although you can use either in English, in German you can only use the subjunctive form “hätte” and never the past tense “hatte”. I was very surprised to learn that you also use past tense in Korean when talking about the future, as in “내일 날씨가 맑았으면 좋겠어요”. In English, “I hope that tomorrow the weather was clear“ sounds wrong. The subjunctive “…were clear” also sounds wrong. The most natural choice in English would be “I hope that tomorrow the weather will be clear“. The only use of past tense that I can think of would be “I had hoped that tomorrow the weather would have been clear“. But in this sentence, the nuance is different. It implies that I just found out that tomorrow the weather will definitely not be clear.

Your video is so helpful. How about the verb 길다. I used to conjugate verb in present tense when I used this structure: 길면 좋겠어요 (it's an exception in Korean, right?) So if I want to use past tense, which sentence is true: 길었으면 좋겠어요 or 길었면 좋겠어요. Sorry for my bad English :

바라다 is more for hope than wish (and is more for future expectation as opposed to wishing for something to be different NOW), and is also used in very formal context for notices and such. 좋은 결과 있길 바라. I hope you get good results. 주의하시기 바랍니다. Please take caution. (Literal: We hope you can caution).

피부가 깨끗했으면 좋겠어요 ㅜㅜ In spanish (my native language) we also use a sort of past tense to express wishes, it's called "Pospretérito" a combination of future and past haha, really annoying conjugation.
