Jawaban
Ketika menangani soal-soal yang berkaitan dengan "wish" dalam bahasa Inggris, Anda perlu mengingat aturan yang berkaitan dengan bentuk kata kerja yang digunakan setelah "wish". Secara umum, ketika mengungkapkan keinginan tentang keadaan yang berbeda dengan kenyataan saat ini, kita menggunakan bentuk Simple Past Tense atau bentuk lampau subjungtif (seperti "were" untuk semua subjek).
【Deskripsi】
Mari kita uraikan langkah demi langkah bagaimana menangani pertanyaan ini:
1. Identifikasi Isu:
Pertama-tama, kita harus mengidentifikasi subjek dari kalimat tersebut. Dalam hal ini, subjeknya adalah "John". Kalimat menyatakan bahwa "John is poor" (John miskin).
2. Mengidentifikasi Tujuan:
Diberikan kalimat yang mengungkapkan keinginan atau harapan John terhadap keadaannya yang saat ini. Tujuannya adalah untuk menyelesaikan kalimat dengan cara yang paling akurat sesuai dengan konteks dan aturan gramatikal.
3. Menggunakan Aturan Bahasa:
Kita tahu bahwa setelah "wish", kita menggunakan bentuk kata kerja dalam Simple Past Tense atau bentuk lampau subjungtif. Dalam kasus "be" dengan subjek tunggal (seperti "he"), kita biasanya menggunakan "were", meskipun "was" juga kadang digunakan dalam percakapan sehari-hari. Tapi dalam hal ini, karena kita diberikan pilihan antara "weren't" dan "were", maka "weren't" adalah pilihan yang benar.
4. Mengaplikasikan Aturan ke Soal:
Mengingat aturan di atas, kita dapat menyelesaikan kalimat sebagai berikut: "John wishes he weren't poor." Artinya, John berharap ia tidak miskin.
【Jawaban】
John wishes he weren't poor.
Pembahasan: "John is poor." menyatakan fakta saat ini. Menggunakan "wish", John mengungkapkan keinginan agar kondisi tersebut berbeda dari kenyataan. Oleh karena itu, kita menggunakan "weren't" (bentuk negatif dari "were") untuk menunjukkan keadaan yang diinginkan namun berbeda dari kenyataan saat ini.
