Fill in the blanks to complete the frustrated commuter's thoughts during a terrible traffic jam.
"I wish the car in front of me _________________________ faster! I really wish I _________________________ how to fly a helicopter right now so I could just float over this mess."
The correct answers are would move and knew.
Use wish + would + base verb for things you want to happen or change in the future, especially when you are annoyed by someone or something else (wishing the car would move).
Use wish + past simple to express a desire for a different present reality (wishing you currently knew how to fly).
