一、用作及物动词的wish和hope之比较

1.与不定式短语搭配时的异同比较。

作及物动词时，wish和hope都与to do sth.搭配。但分析表明，wish to do sth.意为“现在”想做某事，它表达的是眼下的要求或意愿(一般容易实现)，其中“do”隐含的时间状语是“now”或“then”。而hope to do sth.意为想在“将来”做成某事，它表达的是一个想要实现的目标(不一定能实现)，其中“do”隐含的时间状语是“in some time to come”。请比较下列从语料库中摘引的例子

A lady wished to see me urgently.
I wish now to give a more detailed description of the 1974 Remembrance Day march.
DRI hopes to Out-Dos Ms-Dos with DR Dos.
Their lawyer hops to take the case to the European Council.

有时，wish与 to do sth.搭配主要是表示礼貌和郑重，如：
The authors wish to thank Ron Hochsprung at Apple for his patience and support.

2.与that引导的从句搭配时的异同比较。
作及物动词时，wish和hope都与that-clause搭配，但存在三方面的差异：1)在组合模式上，wish和that-clause只以sb. + wish + that-clause的形式组合。而hope和that-clause可以sb. + hope + that-clause以及It + be + hoped + that-clause两种形式组合。2)在语义上，wish + that-clause和hope + that-clause虽都表示愿某种理想的情况(由that-clause表示出来)在“过去”、“现在”或“将来”出现。但wish意味着所希望的是与事实相反的情况，因此几乎没有出现的可能性，而hope意味着说话人认为所希望的情况有可能出现(也许并不会出现)，并对之怀有期盼。3)在用法上，wish后的that-clause中的谓语动词只用两种时态：过去完成时(表示该情况与过去的事实相反)和一般过去时(表示该情况与现在或将来的事实相反)。如：

One only wishes that he had spent more time gaining a perspective outside America.
I wish your teeth were larger.
I do wish they would get on with it.
而hope后的that-clause中的谓语动词可用多种时态。一般说来，过去时态表示陈述的是“过去”的情况，进行时态表示陈述的是“现在”的情况，将来时态或一般现在时态表示陈述的是“将来”的情况。请看举例：

I hope you were inspired by the march, the drums, and God knows what.
I hope Apple is working on the next-generation Macintosh operating system.
It's hoped that it will shortly be supplying 40% of South Africa's motor fuel requirement.
Let's hope he gets better and comes home.

3.wish带名词做宾语的分析。
用作及物动词的wish可以带名词做宾语，两者的搭配方式为：wish sb. sth.或 wish sth. to /on sb.(表祝愿)，wish sb. to do sth. 或 wish sth. done(表愿望)。例如：
I wish them all the luck in the world.
I don't want to wish any bad luck on them.
Many wish Britain to have a major influence in world affairs again.
There is some sensitive material which the depositor does not wish divulged.

二、用作不及物动词的wish和hope之比较

用作不及物动词时，wish主要出现在if+sb.+wish、 as+sb.+wish、when+sb.+wish等组合中，表示“眼下”的愿望或要求，这些组合既可作状语，也可作插入语。而hope主要用在sb. +hope、it + be + hoped、what + sb. + hope + be等组合中，表示对一个理想情况的期盼，这些组合只作插入语。例如：

Mr. Scowcroft means that the UN is now operating as the US wishes.
When you print the briefing charts, you can also, if you wish, print the note files.
The result, he hoped, would be happy.
This, it is hoped, might provide an economic incentive for conservation.
I put the key into what I hoped was the right lock.
此外，用作不及物动词的wish和hope都与for sth.搭配，但wish for sth.表示想有某“物”的愿望(眼下没有得到的可能性)或要求(有可能性)，而hope for sth.表示对一理想 “结果”的期盼(不一定能实现)。请看以下举例：

I wish for a system that respects the aspiration of the young.(愿望)
Lady Littelton wishes for a room of separation between the eating room and the drawing room.(要求)
But chemists hope for a breakthrough in at least one area of research.

三、用作名词的wish和hope之比较

1.语法搭配及搭配意义的比较。

用作名词时，wish(es)与to do sth. / for sth. 搭配表示眼下想做某事 / 想有某物的具体“愿望”，与 of sb.搭配表示某些人的笼统“意愿”。请看举例：
It has no wish to intervene in the internal affairs of another nation.
That's what had prompted Charles Babbage to groan out his famous wish for tables calculated by ‘steam’.
The NF upholds the wish of the majority of the British people.

而hope(s) 常与of doing sth. / of sth. / for sth. 搭配，表示对一个理想结果的主观“期盼”或有利于某结果出现的客观“机会”；与that-clause搭配，表示对出现某情况的“期盼”或有利于某情况出现的“机会”；与for sb.搭配，表示对某人成功的“期盼”或有利于某人成功的“机会”，等等。请看举例：

Those two defeats effectively ended any hopes Britain had of winning the group.
This revived hopes of a further interest rate cut.
If it is, there will be no hope for the youngsters in the village.

2.动词搭配比较。

表示具体“愿望”的wish(es)主要与有“表达”、“存在”、“实现” 等含义的动词搭配，如express、 speak out、 state、 groan out、 make no secret of、have、come true等。表示笼统“意愿”的wish(es)则主要与有“遵从”、“了解”、“违背”等含义的动词搭配，如conform to、 make concession to、 be responsive to、 uphold、 correspond with、pay heed to、 be sensitive to、 take into account、ignore、 disregard、 override等。

表示主观“期盼”的hope(s)主要与有“持有”、“放弃”、“引发”、“打消”、“实现”等含义的动词搭配，如 have、cherish、sustain、cling to、give up、abandon、offer、 give、raise、arouse、renew、revive、dash、shatter、end，be fulfilled / substantiated等。而表示客观“机会”的hope(s)主要与有“提供”、“ 看出”、“存在”等含义的动词搭配，如offer、give、hold、hold out/deny、see、detect、have、there be等。

3.形容词搭配比较。

wish(es)除在best wishes中与best搭配表祝愿外，很少与其他形容词搭配。而hope(s)可与大量的形容词搭配，它们包括high(“强烈的”期盼)， consistent、cherished、widely held、lingering(“怀有的”期盼)，big、much、great、obvious、clear、high、boosted(“极好的”机会)，pious、vague、grim、scant、slender、faint、a ray of、a beam of、a glimmer of、a glow of(“一线”期盼或机会)，forlorn、vain、doomed、broken(“无望的”期盼)等。

� 4.介词搭配比较。

wish(es)主要与表示“遵从”的according to及表示“违背”的against搭配成介词短语做状语或表语。例如：

She thinks it is not right to impose something like the poll tax against the wishes of a majority of the population.

The disposal of these ‘research’ embryos should, as far as possible, be according to the donor's wishes.

而hope(s)主要与表“持有”含义的介词in以in (the) hope(s) of doing sth./sth.(怀着对某结果的期盼)、in (the) hope(s) that + clause(怀着对某情况的期盼)的形式组合起来做状。例如：

Then there's the stream of day-trip Klondikers who descend on the Highland rivers in the hope of becoming rich overnight.
The young men are deserting to Douala and Yaounde in hope of work and betterment.
This has been interpreted as an offering to the goddess in the hope that she would increase the supply of flint.

Answer 2

如果要加sb 只能用hope

hope sb to do ， 不能wish sb to do 。

还有hope是表示很有可能实现的愿望，而wish是表示不大可能实现的愿望（基本上是出于客套 蛮说蛮去 安慰人的），就比如说一个人被火车压扁了 然后他的朋友去医院里看望他 这时候如果要祝他出院 就用wish吧

还有鉴于wish是不大容易实现的，所以wish后面加从句 要虚拟语气

就这些了 谢谢

Answer 3

wish是不大可能成真的 I wish I were a boy.
hope就比较可能实现 I hope you can come to the party.

另外，
We wish you a "merry christmas."
I hope that you have a Merry Christmas.

Answer 4

wish sb to do有这种用法
但hope没有，只能说hope to do 或 hope that...即hope加宾从。

Answer 5

主要区别就是：wish是表示不太可能或者不可能实现的希望，Hope是表示可以实现的希望。

Answer 6

举个例子，I hope you can feel better soon.在这个句型中说我希望你尽快好起来，就只能用hope，因为hope作希望时，表示希望的意思较浓重。要是你对病人问好用wish的话病人就会生气了。因为wish表示的希望的意思较淡。虽然我有点啰嗦，但是不要介意啊！
