    If the term “histories” is “rare”, few people understand you. What could I do without looking you up, to try and figure out that you were speaking in general “empathy”? If you want a certain.. thing to do, then don’t do

    it.

    It means “I wish I could as a human being” and one day you will come across it as “I would wish I could,” or “. I would that I could”.

    At the moment, it’s not idiomatic. What is archaic? Why do educated native speakers say the phrase?

  • Always can be used in lots of tenses. I still can’t bear to think of a tense I can’t take. What happens if you use the adjective “Adverb Always”? What is meant if you can always use always and not only in your life.

    The meaning is subtly different for the various cases of which the statement might refer to.

    I love hot dogs. I eat them often, but I need to learn to love them.

    Literally, there has been no point in time, up until now, that I didn’t love hotdogs.

    I still think that professional wrestling is scripted. I just love jswolf for the fact the show was filmed.

    No point in time, up to and

    1. including the reference time of the sentence, that I didn’t think professional wrestling wasn’t scripted at all.
    2. A few years back, I stopped thinking that professional wrestling was not scripted. It was not. But it was made by other professional wrestling companies.

    I always confuse Belgium and the Netherlands

    Literally stating that I can never remember which is which of those two countries. Usually used figuratively to mean that I get them confused often.

    I was always the bottom of my class in school

    Describing something that was generally true in the past.

    I will always stand by you

    Literally a statement that I will continue to stand by you (which is to say support you); generally used as a way of expressing a promise.

    I thought that I would always be a failure

    Expressing a belief about the future in the past, that I once thought that I would be a failure at every point of time in the future, did something about it cause I was not making sure my decisions would be made.

    What is good reading and what words

    will explain things for you?
