1
give someone energy or enthusiasm
to make someone feel full of energy and ready to act
사용 패턴：
to energize [someone] / to energize [a group]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use *energize* when *charge* is correct in an electrical or battery context (e.g., say "I need to charge my phone" rather than "I need to energize my phone"). They may also overuse *energize* in everyday speech where *wake up*, *cheer up*, or *motivate* sound more natural.

2
supply a device with electricity
to give electricity to a machine, line, or system so it can work
사용 패턴：
to energize [a line / a circuit / a device]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners may confuse this technical meaning with the everyday sense of making someone feel lively. In engineering texts, *energize* almost always refers to electricity, not emotions. Also, some learners incorrectly say *put energy to* instead of *energize* or *power*.
유의어
power (Common in technical and everyday use; slightly broader and more general than *energize*.)
|
electrify (Can mean to supply electricity, but is also used figuratively for excitement, so context matters.)
반의어
de-energize (Technical opposite meaning to remove electrical power from equipment or a circuit.)
|
disconnect (Focuses on cutting a device off from a power source.)

3
stimulate a process or organization
to give new force and activity to a plan, group, or event
사용 패턴：
to energize [a process / a campaign / an organization / the economy]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use *start* or *open* where *energize* is better, when something already exists but needs more activity (e.g., "energize the campaign" rather than "start the campaign" if it is already running). They may also overuse the phrase *give energy to* instead of the more natural single verb *energize* in formal writing.
유의어
revitalize (Suggests bringing new life or strength to something that has become weak or inactive.)
|
stimulate (More formal and broad; used especially for economic or policy contexts.)
반의어
weaken (Means to reduce power or effectiveness, the opposite of what *energize* does here.)
|
slow down (Focuses on reducing speed or activity rather than increasing it.)
