: somebody's wish list
all the things that you would like to have or would like to happen in a particular situation
I wish
used to say that something is not true, but you wish it was
'I think he really likes you.' 'I wish
you wish
used to tell someone that what they want to happen or be true will definitely not happen or become true
'I'm going to be famous one day.' 'You wish'
I don't wish to interfere/be nosy etc
used to show you are sorry if what you are going to say upsets or annoys someone
I don't wish to seem ungrateful, but it's not quite what I expected.
