覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
wished は wish に規則的な過去語尾 -ed を付けた過去形・過去分詞です。wish の末尾 /ʃ/ は無声音なので、-ed は /t/ と発音し、全体は /wɪʃt/ になります。wish for good weather、wish someone success、wish＋仮定的な節という三つの型で覚えると実用的です。
Treat wished as the regular past form of wish: add -ed in spelling, but pronounce the ending /t/, not /ɪd/, because wish ends in the voiceless sound /ʃ/. The complete pronunciation is /wɪʃt/. Learn it through three common patterns: wished for good weather means desired it; wished him success means expressed hope for his success; and wished they had more time presents an unreal or regretted situation. This last pattern is stronger and less likely than ordinary hope. Linking the form, its pronunciation, and these sentence patterns makes wished easier to recognize and use.
例文
I wished for good weather.
私はよい天気を願いました。
She wished him success.
彼女は彼の成功を願いました。
They wished they had more time.
彼らはもっと時間があればよかったと思いました。

wished の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古英語 wȳscan（願う）に由来し、ゲルマン祖語 *wunskijaną に遡る。語根は印欧祖語 *wenh-（求める、愛する）で、ラテン語 venus（愛の女神）と同根。関連語: wish（願い）、wistful（物思いにふける）。「愛し求める」気持ちが「願う」へと発展した。
Wished is formed from wish plus the regular past and past-participle ending -ed. Wish comes from Old English wȳscan, “to wish or desire,” and is related to a Germanic group of words expressing desire. The deeper root has also been connected with ideas of seeking, loving, or desiring. In modern pronunciation, the written -ed becomes /t/ after the voiceless final sound /ʃ/ in wish.
