@Cynthia_2000 for example , between I can be high school student again and I can be high school student back then
- English (US)
@English_Matsu Firstly, the initial sentences are grammatically incorrect. The corrected sentences are:
1. I wish I could be a high school student again. (meaning: to experience it now or in the future)
2. I could have been a better high school student back then. (meaning: to have done something differently in the past)
The main difference:
- "Again" implies a repeated experience, as if you're going back to being a high school student.
- "Back then" refers to a past time, implying you're looking back at your past experience as a high school student.
