喜樂美語
  1. 1

    Jolly describes someone (or something) cheerful, warm, and full of good humor — the kind of happy that makes people enjoy being around them, like a jolly old man who laughs easily. It's a word that sounds a bit old-fashioned or storybook now — think of Santa Claus described as "jolly." British English also uses "jolly" as a light, old-fashioned way to mean "very," like "that's a jolly good idea."

    （性格）愉快、開朗的；（英式口語，加強語氣）非常
