Expressing Regret
Introduction
"To err is human"
What is done is done and it will never be undone. The only possible thing to do instead is just sobbing
and showing regret if the things done or missed were not part of one's expectations. Don't worry, there
are plenty of ways to express regret!
However; before we can tackle the subject, allow me to advise you to do the right deed for the right
reason, then you won't need to be sorry or to regret anything.
People make mistakes. They are not perfect but to certain limits. Stupidities are not to be classified in
the category of fate. Don't rush to do things for fear you should regret them for all the rest of your life.
You are a student and you are supposed to listen to your teacher, to ask her for clarification if you don't
understand something, to do your homework and to revise your lessons regularly. In brief, to work hard.
There will be nothing to regret or to be sorry for even if you don't succeed because you did what you
had to as a serious and committed student.
Regret is expressed after you did something you shouldn't have done or you didn't do something you
should have done. We never regret things we were not responsible for.
Expressing Regret
Expressing regret is as tough as apologizing. Yet it is quite human to admit one's faults.
You didn't do your homework and the teacher is angry with you!
o I ought to have done it. (said to the teacher)
o I should have done it. (said to the teacher)
o If only I had done my homework. (said to yourself)
o I wish I had done my homework. (said to yourself)
You did a stupid mistake and the teacher is mad about it!
o I'm sorry, I oughtn't to have made such a mistake. (said to the teacher)
o I shouldn't have made such a mistake. (said to the teacher)

o If only I hadn't made such a mistake. (said to yourself)
o I wish I hadn't made such a mistake. (said to yourself)
