If something is enhanced, it has been made better or stronger than before. You will see it on products, in science, and in ads: enhanced flavour, enhanced performance, an enhanced image. The word tells you there was an earlier version, and this one is a step up — but it does not tell you how, or how much. That is why ads like it: it sounds like a real gain while staying vague. In stories about the future, an enhanced person may have a body or senses by technology. In ordinary life it is simply “,” with a slightly polished, official feel. It is the -ed form of enhance, so the same limit applies: we enhance quality, not raw counts.
From the word’s history
enhance + -ed.
由 enhance 加上 -ed 組成。
組成enhance + -ed: the state after something has been raised or improved. Same origin as enhance (Latin in + altus, “high”).
