In English we use two verbs that express a desire, but one refers to situations that are possible to happen in the present or future, while the other one refers to things that can't change, mostly about the past:
🟠 Hope: To express something is very possible to happen.
🟠 Wish: To express something is impossible (not likely) to happen. (Never use present simple tense for the clause after "wish" ).
👉🏻 She HOPES she CAN FIND a new house before the end of the year. (It's still possible for this to happen).
👉🏻 He WISHES he HAD TOLD his wife the truth. (It's too late to change something about the past).
Now let's practice!
