  • An exclamatory sentence expresses strong emotions and often begins with words like "if only" or "how".
  • To convert it into an assertive sentence, we replace "If only" with "I wish" while keeping the verb tense correct.
  • Incorrect options:
    • "I wish I am meet you ten years ago." → Incorrect verb form.
    • "I wish I will meet you ten years later." → Changes the meaning.
    • "I wish I will meet I am ten year." → Grammatically incorrect.
