Etymology
The word 'enthused' originated in the early 19th century, deriving from the Greek word 'enthousiasmos', which means 'to be inspired or possessed by a god'. The prefix 'en-' implies to cause to be or to put into, while 'theos' means god. Initially, it referred to a state of divine inspiration but gradually evolved to encompass a more secular expression of excitement or zeal. By the late 19th century, 'enthuse' appeared in English as a verb. It is often used in casual contexts, particularly in American English, where it captures the notion of sharing one's passion or excitement about a subject.
