enhanced
UK: ɪnˈhɑːnst | US: ɪnˈhænst
adj. improved in quality, value, or strength
vt. past tense of "enhance" (to increase or improve something)
The word "enhance" derives from Old French "enhaucier" (to raise, elevate), which itself comes from Latin "inaltiare" (to exalt), combining "in-" (intensive) + "altus" (high). The root "hanc" reflects the idea of height or elevation, metaphorically extended to mean improvement. Over time, "enhance" evolved in English to signify making something better or more effective, with "enhanced" as its past participle/adjectival form.
