Excitement
Definition:
(n.) The act of exciting, or the state of being roused into action, or of having increased action; impulsion; agitation; as, an excitement of the people.
(n.) That which excites or rouses; that which moves, stirs, or induces action; a motive.
(n.) A state of aroused or increased vital activity in an organism, or any of its organs or tissues.
Example Sentences:
(1) Handing Greater Manchester’s £6bn health and social care budget over to the city’s combined authority is the most exciting experiment in local government and the health service in decades – but the risks are huge.
