Definition
朝气蓬勃 is a fixed four-character idiom meaning 'full of youthful energy and vitality'. It is more vivid and literary than the simpler adjectives 有劲/起劲 (HSK6/7), which describe general energy or enthusiasm, and it specifically carries a connotation of youthful optimism and a bright, spirited outlook. Use it to characterize a person's aura or a group's atmosphere.
