ardent
의미: Showing intense enthusiasm, passion, or devotion; burning with fervour.
Ardent conveys a passionate intensity that goes beyond mere enthusiasm. It is most commonly applied to supporters, admirers, and advocates who display unwavering dedication to a cause, person, or pursuit. In journalism, 'ardent supporter' and 'ardent admirer' are standard collocations. The word retains a slightly literary quality and is more common in written English than in speech. Its root connection to fire and heat gives it an evocative warmth absent from cooler synonyms like 'keen' or 'enthusiastic.' It collocates with 'supporter,' 'admirer,' 'advocate,' 'desire,' and 'passion.'
