Delicious
Definition 1 of 3
Pro Tip 1/3
Not for People
Reserve 'delicious' for food and drink, not for describing people, to avoid awkwardness. The spaghetti is delicious, not 'He is delicious.'
Pro Tip 2/3
Express Satisfaction
Use 'delicious' to show you're really pleased with the taste of something. This homemade lemonade is delicious!
Pro Tip 3/3
Positive Intensity
'Delicious' suggests a strong positive reaction, more than just 'good' or 'nice'. The soup wasn't just good, it was delicious.
