Your wish is fulfilled (but not granted, nor ever). ^_^
Oh, how nice. A different word with the same meaning as granted.
Nope, granted and fulfilled can be in 2 different ways.
Fulfill
To bring into actuality; effect: fulfilled their promises.
To carry out (an order, for example).
To measure up to; satisfy. See Synonyms at perform. See Synonyms at satisfy.
Grant
To consent to the fulfillment of: grant a request.
To accord as a favor, prerogative, or privilege: granted the franchise to all citizens.
To bestow; confer: grant aid.
To transfer (property) by a deed.
To concede; acknowledge: I grant the genius of your plan, but you still will not find backers.
n.
The act of granting.
Something granted.
A giving of funds for a specific purpose: federal grants for medical research.
To bring to an end; complete.
Now Fulfilled can be as said above 'to carry out' which would fit with granting but I beleive it was more used as 'to measure up, sastify'.
I wish I had memorized the dictionary and had the best vocabulary so I can prove everyone wronge and make them look bad, without my brain blowing up from over work.
