- 1nB1/ˈhæpinəs/幸福／快樂
The feeling of being happy; a state of feeling pleased, glad, and content.
示範例句 · Example
The puppy brought so much happiness to the whole family.
逐字這隻小狗為整個家庭帶來了好多快樂。
「happiness」是形容詞 happy 變成的名詞，指「快樂這種感覺本身」。可以想成把 happy 收成一團、變成一個可以擁有、可以尋找的東西：find happiness（找到幸福）、bring happiness（帶來快樂）。它是不可數名詞，比一閃即逝的 joy 更像一種較長、較穩的滿足感。
