To covet is a verb meaning that you really want something, or be part of that thing. One of the Ten Commandments in the Christian religion is:
"Thou shalt not covet another person's wife." Exodus 20:17.
Even though that may be very difficult and you are only looking at an attractive woman, the sin is in 'wanting'!
So, something which is 'coveted' is desired by many people.
"James won a coveted gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics 1964."
covetというのは、あなたが何かを本当に欲しい、またはなりたいということを意味する動詞です。
キリスト教のモーセの十戒の一つは、
「他人の妻を欲してはいけない。」出エジプト記20章より
それはとても難しくて、魅力的な女性を見ただけであったとしても、欲することは罪です。
そのため、something which is covetedというのは、多くの人が求めるもののことを言います。
