ব্যাখ্যা
Correct answer: I wish I were a philosopher.
• Exclamatory sentence যদি If, were, would, could, that, had ইত্যাদি দ্বারা শুরু হয়, তাহলে Assertive Sentence এ রূপান্তরিত করার সময় -
- প্রথমে ঐ Word-গুলাের পরিবর্তে 'I wish' ব্যবহৃত হয়।
- তারপর subject + verb + বাকি অংশ বসে।
- সব শেষে Note of exclamation mark-এর বদলে Full stop ব্যবহৃত হয়।
- Structure: Subject + wish + Subject + had + verb + বাকি অংশ + Full stop.
• More examples:
- Exclamatory: Had I the wealth of a millionaire!
- Assertive: I wish I had the wealth of a millionaire.
- Exclamatory: Would that I were a poet!
- Assertive: I wish I were a poet.
