fervent

adjective ardent, earnest, enthusiastic, fervid, passionate, warm, excited, emotional, intense, flaming, eager, animated, fiery, ecstatic, devout, heartfelt, impassioned, zealous, vehement, perfervid (literary) << OPPOSITE apathetic

USAGE Care should be taken when using fervid as an alternative to fervent. Although both come from the same root and share the meaning `intense, ardent', fervent has largely positive connotations, and is associated with hopes, wishes, and beliefs, or admirers, supporters, and fans. Apart from being used less often than fervent, fervid is chiefly negative: in the fervid politics of New York city. A fervent kiss from an admirer would probably be welcome; a fervid one would not.
