The correct answer is OPTION 2 - WERE
If I __WERE______ a child, I would play in the rain.
- The sentence talks about a hypothetical situation - if you were younger (a child).
- "Were" is the subjunctive mood of the verb "to be" used in conditional sentences that refer to unreal or imagined situations.
- "Was" is the simple past tense, which wouldn't be suitable for a hypothetical scenario.
- "Am" is the present tense and doesn't fit the context of being a child.
- "Will" indicates the future, which doesn't convey the idea of being a child in the past.
