One way to hold this word: a person with a fire burning inside them, and you can see it from the outside. The fire shows as energy, as noise, as refusing to stop. From there the word does two jobs: on its own it names that visible fire, and stuck onto another word it asks what kind of fire a person has.
spirited 可以想成一個人身體裡有一團火，而且這團火從外面看得見。它可能表現成動作快、聲音亮、被壓下去還要再站起來。這個畫面一旦抓住，兩種用法就通了：單獨用的時候，它說的是「這團火很旺」；黏在別的字後面的時候，它問的是「這團火是什麼樣子的火」。
