- 1振奮人心的、激昂的
A rousing song, speech, or cheer fills people with energy and makes them eager to do something — stand up, clap, shout, or go and try. Coaches give rousing talks before a match. A crowd may sing a rousing chorus. The word feels warm and public; you would not usually call a quiet love song rousing. It comes from the idea of rousing people, waking their spirit so they want to move. It is a compliment when you say a speech was rousing: you mean it worked on the heart, not only on the facts. Though actually, this is not the same as calling someone angry (), and it is not the same as , which often points at sexual feeling. Here the excitement is to act.
組成rouse (to stir people up) + -ing (describes the thing that does that).
