معنی
Used to express a feeling of great enthusiasm and eagerness.
زمینه فرهنگی
In the US, 'excitement' is a social currency. Being 'excited' about small things (like a new flavor of coffee) is common and seen as being a positive person. Brits may use 'excited' less frequently than Americans, often preferring 'looking forward to' or 'keen.' Over-excitement can sometimes be seen as 'un-cool' or 'childish' in certain social circles. In Japan, harmony (Wa) is important. While 'waku-waku' is used, expressing extreme excitement in a quiet public place might be seen as disruptive. Germans value directness and sincerity. If a German says they are 'aufgeregt,' they might actually be feeling a bit stressed or nervous, not just happy.
Add 'so' for impact
Native speakers almost always say 'I'm SO excited' to sound more natural and sincere.
The French/Portuguese Trap
If your native language is French or Portuguese, be careful! The literal translation of 'excited' can have a sexual meaning in your language, but in English, it is 99% of the time about being happy/eager.

5 سوالBoth are correct! Use 'about' for things/events (I'm excited about the news) and 'for' for people or events (I'm excited for you / I'm excited for the party).
Only if you mean that YOU are a fun, thrilling person. If you are talking about your feelings, you must say 'I'm excited'.
No, it's perfectly fine! It shows you are motivated. If you want to be even more formal, use 'I am looking forward to...'
