invigorating
UK: ɪnˈvɪɡəreɪtɪŋ | US: ɪnˈvɪɡəreɪtɪŋ
adj. making one feel strong, healthy, and full of energy
vt. giving strength or energy to (someone or something)
The word "invigorating" stems from the Latin vigor (strength, energy), combined with the prefix in- (into) and the suffix -ating (forming present participles). The root vigor traces back to vigēre (to be lively), reflecting a core idea of vitality. Over time, "invigorate" evolved in English (17th century) to mean "to fill with vigor," with "invigorating" later describing things that impart energy or liveliness. The morphemes logically combine to convey "putting strength into" something.
