    My examples about topc:
    1. A wish expression in the present tense:
    If only i were/was be able to watched that video a long time ago.( i can use helping verb were instead helping verb was ,right?) Which one of them is more formal? I would want to learn,please.Because you said that using of helping verb was is for a wish expression in modern english,right? But also i can use helping verb were for formal expression, can't i?
    2. A wish expression example for the future:
    If only we your followers would be able to do face to face speaking practice with you on a live program on your this youtube channel.
    3. A wish expression from the pass perfect tense:
    If only you hadn't laughed to me, when i tried speaking english with you. ( after i tried each speaking english , i think that, if did sombodies laugh me from my back? :)))i think, i have a little infreriority complex about this subject:)))
    I hope , i could coreectly do my exercises. :)
    Thank you very much for this lesson. Also I like your teaching style so much. Because i can put up with watching your videos with a big pleasure and i can learn a lot of things from you about english.👍👍👍❤👏👏👏

      Hi. "If only I were money." is grammatically correct but it doesn't make sense. A person cannot *be* money.
      A person can *have* money. - "If only I *had* money." is the correct version. :)
