喜樂美語
  1. 1a/ɪnˌθuːziˈæstɪk/ · /ɪnˌθjuːziˈæstɪk/熱情的；熱心的

    Showing or feeling strong interest and enjoyment in something.

    「enthusiastic」是英文裡「很感興趣、而且看得出來」的形容詞——不只心裡喜歡，說話、表情、動作都會露出熱度。最常見搭配是 enthusiastic about something / about doing something。跟 eager 容易搞混：eager 偏「很想快點做／快點知道」；enthusiastic 偏「對這件事本身充滿興趣」。跟 excited 比：excited 常指向「即將發生的事」，enthusiastic 也可以講長期的興趣或支持。核心畫面可以想成「興趣亮起來，別人看得見」。
