zeal
Zeal is an uncountable noun, meaning you cannot say "zeals" when referring to enthusiasm. It is more intense than "interest" or "enthusiasm." It often suggests a strong devotion to a specific goal or belief. While usually positive, it can sometimes imply that someone is being too extreme or fanatical in their approach.

💡
Jackson uses 'zeal' to make his impulsive crypto gambling sound like a professional pursuit, while Ryan's use of the slang 'bet' (meaning 'okay' or 'I agree') shows his characteristic obliviousness and lack of critical thinking.
