覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
fit「大きさ・形が合う」の過去形・過去分詞で、短母音の後の t を重ねて -ed を付ける。発音は fit /fɪt/ に対し fitted /ˈfɪtɪd/ と一音節増える。服なら fitted me well、物なら fitted the lock のように、形や寸法が対象にぴったり収まった場面で覚える。
Fitted is formed from fit by doubling the final t and adding -ed. The pronunciation changes from /fɪt/ to /ˈfɪtɪd/, with an extra syllable. Picture a jacket that fitted its wearer comfortably or a key that fitted a lock exactly. This sense concerns matching size or shape, not being physically healthy. Useful patterns include fitted me well, fitted her feet, and fitted the space. In some varieties and contexts, fit can also occur as a past form, but fitted is standard and matches these examples.
例文
The jacket fitted me well.
その上着は私によくフィットしました。
The new key fitted the lock.
新しい鍵はその錠にぴったり合いました。
The shoes fitted her feet comfortably.
その靴は彼女の足に心地よくフィットしました。

fitted の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古英語 fitt（衣服の合わせ目）からfit（合う）が派生し、その過去分詞形。古ノルド語 fitja（編み合わせる）とも関連。関連語：fitting（適切な）、outfit（装備）。「編み合わせてぴったり合わせる」が原義で、サイズや形が合う意味に発展した。
Fitted is the past tense and past participle of fit, formed by doubling the final consonant before -ed. Fit has a Germanic history associated with making, joining, or adjusting something so that it is suitable or correctly matched. From the practical idea of parts being properly joined, the verb developed its familiar senses of having the right size or shape and being suitable for a purpose.
