If you want something, you feel a need for it or a desire to have it. You can say that you want to do something, that you want someone to do something, or that you want something to happen. If you use wish with a 'to' infinitive, this has the same meaning as want but is more formal. I want to get out of here... She wished to consult him about her future. Wish is normally followed by a 'that'-clause, although the word 'that' is often omitted from the clause. If you wish that something was the case, you would like it to be the case, even though this is unlikely or impossible. I wish I lived near London... He wished he had phoned for a cab. Note the use of the tenses in the examples； when wish is in the present tense, the past tense is used in the clause, and when wish is in the past tense, the past perfect tense is used in the clause.注意wish 与 want 虽意思相近，但用法不同。want 表示感觉需要或希望拥有某物，可以说 want to do something, want someone to do something 或 want something to happen。如果 wish 与带 to 的不定式连用，则与 want 意思相同，但语气要更正式：I want to get out of here (我想离开这里), She wished to consult him about her future (她想就自己未来的发展向他咨询意见)。wish 一般后接 that 从句，但从句中的 that 经常省略，表示虽然明知不太可能或完全没有可能，依然希望某事是真的：I wish I lived near London (我真希望自己住在伦敦附近)，He wished he had phoned for a cab (他真希望自己已经打电话叫出租车了)。注意上述例子中时态的用法：wish 用现在时，则从句用过去时；wish 用过去时，则从句用过去完成时。5[VERB	动词]祈求；企求；默默期盼 If you wish for something, you express the desire for that thing silently to yourself. In fairy stories, when a person wishes for something, the thing they wish for often happens by magic.   [V for n]We have all wished for men who are more considerate...我们都曾祈求能找到更加体贴的男人。A philosopher once said, 'Be careful what you wish for； you might get it.'一位哲学家曾说过：“别轻易许愿——你可能会如愿以偿。”Wish is also a noun.Blow out the candles and make a wish.吹蜡烛许愿吧。6[VERB	动词]这是再好不过的；没有比这更好的了 Wish is used in sentences such as I could not wish for anything better to indicate that you are very pleased with what you have and could not imagine anything better.   [V for n]  [no cont]  [feelings]I really could not have wished for a better teacher...这个老师对我来说是再好不过的了。Who could wish for a better opportunity?谁还会企求能得到比这更好的机会呢？7[VERB	动词]希望…发生在…身上 If you say that you would not wish a particular thing on someone, you mean that the thing is so unpleasant that you would not want them to be forced to experience it.   [V n on n]  [no cont]It's a horrid experience and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.这种经历太痛苦了，我甚至都不希望它发生在死对头身上。8[VERB	动词]祝；祝愿 If you wish someone something such as luck or happiness, you express the hope that they will be lucky or happy.   [V n n]  [V n adv]I wish you both a very good journey...我祝愿你们两人旅途愉快。Goodbye, Hanu.

Collins	wish ★★★★☆ /wɪ̱ʃ/ 1 [N-COUNT 可数名词]See also:death wish ；愿望；希望 A wish is a desire or strong feeling that you want to have something or do something. [oft with poss] She was sincere and genuine in her wish to make amends for the past... 她真诚地希望弥补从前的过失。 Clearly she had no wish for conversation... 她显然无意谈话。 She wanted to go everywhere in the world. She soon got her wish... 她想走遍世界，很快便如愿以偿。 The decision was made against the wishes of the party leader. 这个决定违背了该党领导人的意愿。 2 [VERB 动词]想要，希望(做…) If you wish to do something or to have it done for you, you want to do it or have it done. [V to-inf] [V] [V for n] [FORMAL 正式] If you wish to go away for the weekend, our office will be delighted to make hotel reservations... 如果您想外出度周末，我们办事处将很乐意为您预订旅馆。 We can dress as we wish now... 我们现在着装可以随心所欲。 There were the collaborators, who wished for a German victory. 有通敌者希望德国获胜。 3 [VERB 动词](用于要说的话可能使人不快或担心等时)不想，无意 Wish is used in expressions such as I don't wish to be rude or without wishing to be rude as a way of apologizing or warning someone when you are going to say something which might upset, annoy, or worry them. [V to-inf] [with brd-neg] [politeness] I don't wish to sound callous, but I am glad I wasn't here... 我不想让自己的话听上去麻木不仁，但我真的很庆幸我当时没在这儿。 Without wishing to be unkind, she's not the most interesting company. 我不想那么刻薄，不过她并不是非常有情趣的伴侣。 4 [VERB 动词]希望(不可能或可能性很小的事发生) If you wish something were true, you would like it to be true, even though you know that it is impossible or unlikely. [V that] [V n to-inf] [no cont] I wish I could do that... 我希望我能做那件事。 I wish it weren't true... 但愿这不是真的。 Pa, I wish you wouldn't shout... 爸，我希望你不要嚷嚷了。 The world is not always what we wish it to be. 世界并不总是如我们所愿。 Usage Note : Note that wish and want have similar meanings, but are used differently. If you want something, you feel a need for it or a desire to have it. You can say that you want to do something, that you want someone to do something, or that you want something to happen. If you use wish with a 'to' infinitive, this has the same meaning as want but is more formal. I want to get out of here... She wished to consult him about her future. Wish is normally followed by a 'that'-clause, although the word 'that' is often omitted from the clause. If you wish that something was the case, you would like it to be the case, even though this is unlikely or impossible. I wish I lived near London... He wished he had phoned for a cab. Note the use of the tenses in the examples； when wish is in the present tense, the past tense is used in the clause, and when wish is in the past tense, the past perfect tense is used in the clause. 注意wish 与 want 虽意思相近，但用法不同。want 表示感觉需要或希望拥有某物，可以说 want to do something, want someone to do something 或 want something to happen。如果 wish 与带 to 的不定式连用，则与 want 意思相同，但语气要更正式：I want to get out of here (我想离开这里), She wished to consult him about her future (她想就自己未来的发展向他咨询意见)。wish 一般后接 that 从句，但从句中的 that 经常省略，表示虽然明知不太可能或完全没有可能，依然希望某事是真的：I wish I lived near London (我真希望自己住在伦敦附近)，He wished he had phoned for a cab (他真希望自己已经打电话叫出租车了)。注意上述例子中时态的用法：wish 用现在时，则从句用过去时；wish 用过去时，则从句用过去完成时。 5 [VERB 动词]祈求；企求；默默期盼 If you wish for something, you express the desire for that thing silently to yourself. In fairy stories, when a person wishes for something, the thing they wish for often happens by magic. [V for n] We have all wished for men who are more considerate... 我们都曾祈求能找到更加体贴的男人。 A philosopher once said, 'Be careful what you wish for； you might get it.' 一位哲学家曾说过：“别轻易许愿——你可能会如愿以偿。” Wish is also a noun. Blow out the candles and make a wish. 吹蜡烛许愿吧。 6 [VERB 动词]这是再好不过的；没有比这更好的了 Wish is used in sentences such as I could not wish for anything better to indicate that you are very pleased with what you have and could not imagine anything better. [V for n] [no cont] [feelings] I really could not have wished for a better teacher... 这个老师对我来说是再好不过的了。 Who could wish for a better opportunity? 谁还会企求能得到比这更好的机会呢？ 7 [VERB 动词]希望…发生在…身上 If you say that you would not wish a particular thing on someone, you mean that the thing is so unpleasant that you would not want them to be forced to experience it. [V n on n] [no cont] It's a horrid experience and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. 这种经历太痛苦了，我甚至都不希望它发生在死对头身上。 8 [VERB 动词]祝；祝愿 If you wish someone something such as luck or happiness, you express the hope that they will be lucky or happy. [V n n] [V n adv] I wish you both a very good journey... 我祝愿你们两人旅途愉快。 Goodbye, Hanu. I wish you well. 再见，哈努，祝你顺心如意。 9 [N-PLURAL 复数名词]祝愿；祝福 If you express your good wishes towards someone, you are politely expressing your friendly feelings towards them and your hope that they will be successful or happy. [adj N] [politeness] I found George's story very sad. Please give him my best wishes... 我觉得乔治的经历很悲惨，请向他转达我最诚挚的祝福。 Western leaders sent good wishes to the new American president. 西方领导人向新任美国总统致以良好的祝愿。
