How to Talk about Hope in English | Present, Past, and Future

[@danielsantos1028]

Situations you propose using hope 1. I hope your job interview goes well and you get the job you looking for. 2. I hope the decoration is to your liking too, but is there anything else you think would be appropriate to change? 3. I hope in the aeroport lounge has a good food and nice place to rest until I wait for the next flight I hope you continue to share your grace, beauty and knowledge with us 😃

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Wonderful examples here. Each one is appropriate for the situation and has the right grammar structure for the hope it expresses.

[@ogaminiratnayake2830]

I hope that you will come up with more "hope" content stuff in the future lessons as well.. 😮 Hope that you would heed my request and do the needfull.. 😁 So, finally hope to see you soon with another lesson.. 👍 Blessings and grace to you dear teacher and have yourself a nice day too.. 🙏 Hugs.xoxoxo Gams ❤️

[@studyingasahobby]

Examples: 1) I hope you get it! 2) I hope you liked my decoration. 3) I hoped I would have booked a later flight. Thanks for the lesson! I love your way of expressing yourself.

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Thank you. These are great responses. In the last example, the time tense is a tricky and to keep it focused in the past (since we can't change what happened in the past) we would say: At that moment, I hoped/wished I had booked a later flight.

I am I indian Girl 😇 I always listen to Your Voice Ma'am ! Your voice is soft and sweet !❤️ ma'am I am trying to learn English slowly by listening to You & Paying attention to grammar feet ❣️🤗Tysm MA'AM ❤️🤗

[@rosejiang1162]

Thank you so much for the insightful lesson! I enjoyed it very much! Sorry to ask one question: I am curious about the difference between these two examples: "I hoped I would meet her today" (this means I did not meet her today based on the example) and "I hoped they would call me the next day" (in the example, it means that this is my hope at some time point). May I ask how do we know one hope is not fulfilled, and another hope is for the future at some time in the past? Is it based on the whole sentence, not just the "past tense" of hope and the modal verb "would"? Thank you so much for your help and expertise!

Thanks a million for such an effective lesson ma'm. 1.I hope you'll nail it. 2. I hope you are enjoying being here. 3. I hoped I hadn't missed the flight. Would you be so nice to correct these sentences?

[@Welcome2493]

Hello how are you teachers good job keep going I want to learn with you Thank you 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@kristianhidalgo731]

Sueño con aprender ingles de forma muy fluida.

[@gurcharanlal7205]

Ma'm i have confusions in using May, Might and Would. Regards

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Thank you. I will add that as a future topic.

[@daminana2535]

What does 'd in "I hope I'd see Maya at the meeting today " contract from ? would ? could ?

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

When we use "I'd" it always has one of two possible meanings: 1) I had 2) I would We determine which meaning is used based on the context and grammatical structure of the sentence.

[@chan3476]

😊 love from india 🎉🎉

[@OTRAKAKZDOROVJU]

When iI missed the flight I had hoped I could take an other flight in the same day. Is it correct?

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Yes, wonderful! That is correct. One quick spelling update is to spell 'an other' as 'another.'

[@salahkhalifa9786]

I hope you do well at your job interview.

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Wonderful example. 😀

[@socalvibe4500]

I wanna know "wish" as well so tricky

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Oh, thank you. Yes, I will add that as a future topic.

[@WWE201177]

I hope you visit Oman one day..

[@385923744]

❤

[@elenadimentova6350]

1. I hope Anna has a good result at the interview tomorrow. 2. O, hello, my dear!! I hoped to see you here in time, but you're a bit late. 3. I hoped I'd never miss a flight in my life , but today I've been unlucky.

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Wonderful examples here. The hope you are expressing in each one uses the correct grammar structure. For number 2, another situation to consider is what would you say to your friend who is coming to help you with decorations? You've already started. What will you say about the decorations when she arrives?

[@elenadimentova6350]

​​@@SpeakconfidentenglishHello, Mary! I was hoping that you come and was waiting for you so much, my dear. ❤ You are just in time to help me with this wonderful decorations!

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Oh, perfect!! Nicely done.

[@sonaljoshi-a8699]

I hope you liked decorations.

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Great option for what you might say to your friend!

[@мауа-ь8з]

1. I hope you succeed 2. I hope you are enjoying the party 3. I'd hoped l wouldn't missed my plane

[@sonaljoshi-a8699]

I hope I had reached on time no to miss flight.

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Good start here. Because this is past focused, I recommend using 'hope' in a past form. For example: I hoped I would make it on time.

[@pintusinha1989]

I hope they are fine

[@patricia855]

Anne marie, would it be correct to say : I hope Maya is coming to the party tomorrow ?

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Yes, that works perfectly well. Thank you. 😊

[@patricia855]

Thank you so much for your quick feedback. I do appreciate. Is there a difference between : I hope Maya comes to the party And I hope Maya is coming to the party ? At the party would be wrong ?

[@subhashbairagi9164]

Dear mari anne,i am from bangla&esh i prefer your excelent pro:nouncation.thank you anne very much

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Thank you for the questions. There is no difference in meaning between the 2 examples. And correct, we only use "at the party" when we are physically at the party, in the moment.

[@sonaljoshi-a8699]

I hope she would get a job

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Because this is future focused, a better structure would be: hope + present simple. For example, I *hope* you *get* the job.

[@mariaspringer356]

Ŵhen I was younger I always hoped, war will be stopped all over the world.
