Is this sentence correct?

Post by csorsi »

Hi,

I wrote the following sentence down the other day and someone told me it was not correct but could not explain why.
The sentence: If I were you I would never climb that tree.

There is nothing grammatically wrong with the sentence: with a comma after 'you' it would be perfect!
