Attention German speakers
"I wish [something] would [verb]" is incorrect
You're supposed to write
"I wish [something] [verb]ed"
Same with "if [something] would [verb]" and "unless...".
For example
You don't say "I wish money would grow on trees"
You say "I wish money grew on trees"
You don't say "I would tell you if I would know"
You say "I would tell you if I knew"
Thank you
