If I could …

Så fungerar det

Vi vill berätta om drömmar och tänkta situationer. I wish I could fly betyder jag önskar att jag kunde flyga. If I had a lot of money, I'd … betyder om jag hade mycket pengar skulle jag … Efter if kommer dåtid, och i andra halvan kommer would, ofta förkortat 'd.

Säg alltid varför: I'd like to work with animals because … En dröm får vara stor eller liten, nära eller långt borta. Du väljer själv vad du delar.

If I had a superpower, I'd stop time. Det betyder: om jag hade en superkraft skulle jag stoppa tiden.

What's your dream?

This month we asked four young readers: "What's your dream, and why?" Zain, 13, Birmingham: "My dream is to design video games. I've already made two small games with a free program, and my little sister loves them. If I had a better computer, I'd make a game about saving the oceans. I'm going to study computer science one day." Molly, 14, Belfast: "I'd love to sail around the world. My grandad was a sailor, and he tells amazing stories about storms and dolphins. I know it's dangerous, but I'm learning to sail at a club by the harbour. Maybe I'll do it when I'm twenty-five." Theo, 12, Bristol: "Honestly, I'm not sure what I want to do. Everyone asks me, and I don't know! I like music, cooking and climbing. I think it's OK not to know yet." Priya, 15, Glasgow: "I wish I could change one thing: I'd like every child in the world to go to school. My mum grew up in a village in India, and she had to stop school at eleven. If I could, I'd build schools. For now, I'm collecting books for a library project." What about you? Big or small, your dream matters. Send us your dream!
