How it's used
This is a formal idiom often used in written contexts or when someone wants to express a high degree of intellectual or spiritual satisfaction. It describes a state of joy that feels inexhaustible, rather than just a fleeting moment of happiness. While it can be used in speech, it carries a slightly literary or sophisticated tone compared to everyday expressions like 好開心.
Examples
Playing video games with old friends is truly endless fun.
Do you really find this job to be endlessly enjoyable?
