enjoy
Oh, this is a good one to know!
"Enjoy" means to get pleasure or happiness from something. Like, it feels good, you like it, you're happy while doing it.
So if you love eating pizza, you can say "I really enjoy pizza." Or if you had a great time at a party, you'd say "I enjoyed the party last night." Your friend might text you before a movie: "Enjoy the film!" — that's like saying "I hope it makes you happy."
You can enjoy big things, like "She enjoys traveling to new countries," or small everyday things, like "He enjoys his morning coffee." It works for activities, food, experiences, moments — pretty much anything that brings you a good feeling.
One small tip — "enjoy" usually needs an object after it. So you say "I enjoy swimming," not just "I enjoy." If there's no object, people say "I'm enjoying myself" instead.
Basically, enjoy = feel happy about something while it's happening or because of it.
