Which do you use?

[Tdol]

Both are correct, IMO, but I grew up with 'were'.

AHHHHHHH !!! I need to change my vote. I wasn't think quite clearly, and I voted for "If I was..."

"If I were...." sounds correct. I grew up with it, too. Though, here in Ohio, I here "If I was..." a lot. Hence, my thinking it was correct. I feel that "If I were..." is correct.

Sorry.

[Tdol]

I grew up being told that 'was' was incorrect and don't use it, but still favour 'were'. It's more of an affectation than anything, but I do have it.

[Will]

'Was' just sounds wrong. Perhaps it's just me, but it doesn't seem right. Keep in mind I have no evidence to support this, but it just doesn't sound natural.

[Tdol]

It's natural to my ear but not my mouth.

[Will]

It's natural to my ear but not my mouth.

What? "If it were..." or "If it was..."?

[Tdol]

'Was'

'Were' sounds fine and speaks fine. ;-0

[Will]

Ah, I see.

[Confucius]

I voted for Was
But i realize i use Were

[Tdol]

I don't think you can change your vote in these polls. ;-(
