今日,我睇書果陣......

'She probably wishes she were nine like me so she could eat corn crunchies .'

她好可能在希望她是 9 歲，像我一樣，可以吃粟米脆條 （像粟一燒那種）。

（她不是 9 歲，可能太細，無牙，吃不了，或媽媽不准）


這是 PAST SUBJUNCTIVE 的句式。

the forms. If she were coming, she would be here by now. I insist that the chairman resign! Their main demand was that the lawsuit be dropped. These sentences all contain verbs in the subjunctive mood, which is used chiefly to express the speaker’s attitude about the likelihood or factuality of a given situation. If the verbs were in the indicative mood, we would expect she was coming in the first sentence, the chairman resigns in the second, and the lawsuit is dropped in the third. 1 English has had a subjunctive mood since Old English times, but most of the functions of the old subjunctive have been taken over by auxiliary verbs like may and should, and the subjunctive survives only in very limited situations. It has a present and past form. The present form is identical to the base form of the verb, so you only notice it in the third person singular, which has no final -s, and in the case of the verb be, which has the form be instead of am, is, and are. The past subjunctive is identical with the past tense except in the case of the verb be, which uses were for all persons: If I were rich …, If he were rich …, If they were rich….

The past subjunctive is sometimes called the were subjunctive, since were is the only subjunctive form that is distinct from the indicative past tense. It appears chiefly in if clauses and in a few other constructions expressing hypothetical conditions:
If he were sorry, he’d have apologized by now. I wish she weren’t going away. She’s already acting as if she were going to be promoted. Suppose she were to resign, what would you do then?

這種 SUBJUNCTIVE 是無可能的假設，所以全用 PAST TENSE， 還要用 WERE 不用 WAS。

this is a no meaning sentence, are you wrote the wrong question, or is there some words are wrong?
