Số nhiều: feastsQuá khứ: feastedPhân từ 2: feastedV-ing: feasting

The word carries a strong sense of abundance and communal joy. It is not merely about eating, but about the ritual and social celebration surrounding a meal. There is an inherent feeling of generosity and luxury, often associated with holidays or special milestones. In a non-culinary sense, it describes a sensory overload of pleasure. When someone feasts their eyes on a view, they are consuming a visual experience with the same intensity and greed as one would a banquet, suggesting a deep, appreciative hunger for beauty or information.

Countable when referring to a specific celebratory banquet event. Uncountable when referring to the general act of eating lavishly.
