Having studied Spanish, "if I was" sounds very strange now. In Spanish it'd always be the subjunctive: e.g. "si fuera..." and never the indicative "si fui...".
- davidw 14y agoSame with Italian, although occasionally people do use the past rather than the subjunctive, but it sounds pretty bad; much worse than "If I was".
