Merrymaking is fun and enjoyment, especially the kind with drinking, dancing, and singing. It names the party itself — people making merry together — more than a quiet inner feeling. You hear it around festivals, Christmas, New Year, and old village celebrations. It can sound storybook or a little old-fashioned, and it often carries a hint of noise and drink, more than merriment does. A quiet cup of tea is not merrymaking; a street full of music and laughter on New Year's Eve is. Like merriment, it is usually uncountable.
