The crowd wended its way home; the river wends its way through the valley; we wended our way back to the hotel. Almost no one says 'I wended to the shop'. It is a literary, gently old-fashioned word, and writers choose it when they want an unhurried, wandering feeling — a walk that takes its time, a road that curves.

The crowd wended its way home那群人慢慢走回家the river wends its way through the valley河流蜿蜒流過山谷we wended our way back to the hotel我們慢慢走回旅館Almost no one says幾乎沒有人會說'I wended to the shop'『I wended to the shop』這種說法It is a literary, gently old-fashioned word是一個文學性、有點老派的字writers choose it作家會選用它when they want an unhurried, wandering feeling當他們想要一種不趕、漫遊的感覺時a walk that takes its time像是一段慢慢走的路a road that curves一條彎彎曲曲的路

Note also that the past tense of 'go' — 'went' — is really the old past tense of this very verb. Long ago 'go' and 'wend' got mixed together, 'go' borrowed 'went', and 'wend' was left with the new regular past 'wended'. So when you say 'I went home', you are using a piece of 'wend' without knowing it.

Note also that另外要注意the past tense of 'go'『go』的過去式'went'『went』is really the old past tense of this very verb其實就是這個字本來的舊過去式Long ago很久以前'go' and 'wend' got mixed together『go』和『wend』混在一起了'go' borrowed 'went'『go』借用了『went』and 'wend' was left with而『wend』就留下了the new regular past 'wended'新的規則過去式『wended』So所以when you say 'I went home'當你說『I went home』的時候you are using a piece of 'wend'你其實正在用到『wend』的一部分without knowing it卻不知道
