English grammar rules I learned tell me I should use subjunctive for sentenses start with "I wish...". My question is can I do the same for "I hope" ? To me, both convey the same meaning.
For example,
1) I wish you were right and I were wrong.
2) I hope you were right and I were wrong.
Can I use subjunctive for I hope ?
