Thanks Sam !

Plz tell me about the difference between "hope" and "wish". I asked u before but maybe U forgot it.

Thank in advance.

 

Ok here we go,

The difference between Wish and Hope .... Usually in English we use hope for something that is or can be real, like the following example:

I hope my football team wins this game (they are playing right now so it's possible that they can win the game).

Wish is used for things that are almost or completely impossible.  Here is an example:

I wish I still had all my hair Tongue out (I am losing my hair as I get older and there is no way to get it back, it is an impossible situation

 Ok Now it's up to you ... send me example sentences and we will see if they are good or not.

Have a great day and always try to learn something new everyday.
