The word "delighted" is deployed in literature to communicate a spectrum of warm emotional responses that range from quiet contentment to exuberant joy. In narrative passages, it often highlights a character's spontaneous feelings, whether expressed in a subtle, sincere manner as in [1], [2], or with an almost exaggerated repetition that heightens the emotional intensity, as in [3] and [4]. It can also serve as a device to underscore social interactions, such as receiving news that brings gentle pleasure in [5] or the light-hearted invitation for company in [6] and [7]. Moreover, in some classical and poetic contexts, the term adds a layer of lyrical elegance, while in more descriptive passages it paints vivid pictures of delight in everyday scenes, as seen in [8] and [9].
