Help the frustrated college student complete his diary entry about his terrible roommate by dragging the correct verbs into the blanks.

I wish our apartment were a bit bigger so we wouldn't be in each other's way all the time. I also wish my roommate would wash his dirty dishes more than once a month! Finally, I wish he knew how to use a vacuum cleaner, because the living room carpet is a disaster.

The correct answers are were, would wash, and knew.

Use wish + past simple (like knew or the subjunctive were) for situations or facts in the present that you want to be different.

Use wish + would + base verb to express annoyance or a strong desire for someone's behavior to change in the present or future.
