They . . . . . . . . me on my birthday every year. A. wished B. wish C. wishes D. wishing

wished
wish
wishes
wishing

The correct answer is: A. wished

The verb “wish” is used to express a desire or hope for something. In the sentence “They wished me on my birthday every year,” the verb “wished” is in the past tense. This is because the sentence is describing a repeated action that happened in the past.

The other options are incorrect because they are not in the past tense. The verb “wish” is conjugated as follows:

  • Present tense: I wish, you wish, he/she/it wishes, we wish, you wish, they wish
  • Past tense: I wished, you wished, he/she/it wished, we wished, you wished, they wished
  • Past participle: wished

The verb “wish” can also be used as a noun. In this case, it means a request or desire. For example, “I have a wish.”
