To enliven something is to make it more lively, more fun, or more interesting — a party, a room, a lesson, a piece of writing. You add energy, as if you were putting more life into a quiet place. Friends more often say liven up; enliven is a little more formal, the kind of word a teacher or a writer might choose. Though actually, it does not mean bring back from death, and it is not the same word as enlighten (that one is about explaining). The heart of enliven is life.
使生動、炒熱、讓場面或文章活起來。口語更常說 liven up。
