1. 1

    If someone is ebullient, they are very happy and , and it shows — they talk, smile, move, as if the feeling is bubbling out of them. The word is a little formal; in everyday talk people more often say cheerful, , or bubbling. Writers like ebullient because it keeps that Latin picture of boiling over. You can call a mood or a crowd ebullient, not only a person. It is almost always positive, stronger than ‘pleased’ and livelier than ‘happy.’ A quiet person can be deeply glad without being ebullient.

    興高采烈的;熱情洋溢的(較書面)
