   Hello Alessandro,

   There is something I wanted to mention about WISH.

   If you are willing to say a hypothetical situation you can say in two ways:

   - I wish I were you.
   - I wish I was you.

   Both are acceptable, since in modern English the only thing needed to express this situation is the past tense verb, but you’re going to see the first sentence more often. The same can be applied to IF (IF I were you).

   See you

   Estimados amigos do English Experts,
   Antes de mais, parabéns pelo vosso blog, muito útil para aprender inglês e tirar dúvidas para as mais diversas questões.
   Venho colocar-vos uma das grandes dificuldades que enfrento como tradutora inglês-português de textos da área de “desenvolvimento”: Como distinguir devidamente em português as seguintes palavras: result, outcome, output, outcomes, impact?
   Obter uma resposta da vossa parte seria uma grande ajuda para mim.
   Muito Obrigada.
   F.R.

   I wish I was you sounds wrong to me.

   I wish I were you is ot just a past tense. It si the remains of the subjunctive, which is used to express irreal situations.
