✔ 最佳答案
Wish 是願望, Hope 是希望, 很多時互用, 它們的微細含意和用法不同, 容易混亂
WISH
(a) Wish + infinitive (meaning want to)
I wish to go to Boston.
Wish + pronoun + infinitive
Do you wish me to come back earlier?
表示說話的人願望, 但對這種心願是否能實現, 未加考慮
(b) wish that ……………..
表示一種夢想, 心願, 或對過去發生的事發表評論或感嘆
I wish I lived in Boston.
My brother wished (that) he had not done that.
Wish + that-clause is not generally used for wishes about things that seem possible in the future. We often use hope in this sense.
(c) wish + somebody + something ( two objects)
表示祝福 (a fixed expression of good wishes)
I wish you a pleasant trip.
We wish you a Merry Christmas.
HOPE
表示想做的事或期待出現某種積極而有利的結果, 而這種希望是可以實現
a) hope + infinitive
He hopes to become doctor.
(b) hope that ………
I hope that you can help me.
Wish 和 Hope 最大的分別是
如果是夢想, 假設, 不能實現
Clauses after wish are formed with subjunctive.(假設語氣)
後面的 verb 是 past tense, but the sentence is present and future in meaning.
I wish I knew Spanish. (~ but I don’t know Spanish
I wish I had more friends. (~ but I don’t have many friends.)
I wish I were young. (~ but I am not young.)
You can also use would and could. (~ express regret or annoyance)
I wish he would come.
When talking about things that you would like to have happened, use wish and the past perfect tense. (~wishes in the past)
I wish I had paid more attention in class. (已經發生, 早知…是感嘆)
Hope 多數是講將來, 不會用 subjunctive
The verb hope is used with either present or future, when there is no question of human ‘willingness “
I hope it snows (will snow) tomorrow.
When human willingness is involved, you must use future
I hope you will visit us. (= an invitation)
wish 和 hope 可以做 noun
verb (express, fulfill, make, respect, grant, meet, obey, ignore, go against) + wish
wish + verb (come true)
verb (boost, bring, raise, cling to, give up, lose, kill, crush, destroy, end, offer) + hope
hope + verb (grow, die, remain, fade)
