"To want (an object)" is expressed with the word "hoshii." A typical grammatical usage would be "-object- ga hoshii desu." Sentence 1: Ringo ga hoshii desu. ("I want an apple.") Sentence 2: Sono kutsu ga hoshii desu. ("I want those shoes.") "To want (to do something)" is expressed in the -tai conjugation of verbs, constructed by attaching "tai" to the pre-masu stem. (Narimasu --> naritai. Hashirimasu --> hashiritai. Tabemasu --> tabetai. Nomimasu --> nomitai.)
