Bonjour
ma vieille grammaire étudiante " La Grammaire Anglaise de l'Etudiant " de Berland Delépine disait au sujet du prétérit modal après wish qu'il exprimait avec l'irréel un regret, avec le potentiel un souhait :
1) Irréel de présent : I wish he were with us.
2) irréel du passé : I wish he had brought his camera
3) potentiel avec would et could
I wish he would answer my letter at once. I wish he could understand my reasons for refusing.
impatience face à de la mauvaise volonté: I wish you would stop whistling.
demande polie : I wish you would ask him to come
1.I Wish I were happier = regret present
2.I Wish you arrived now = espoir present
3.I Wish you could do that now = present comme ce n'est toujours pas fait, plutôt un souhait sur un futur le plus proche possible
4.I Wish I had been happier = past regret sur le passé
5.I Wish I could be happier = future
6.I Wish she would calm down = future ou impatience face à de la mauvaise volonté comme quand on dit Bong sang mais elle va pas se taire un peu celle-là ?
