Learners often say *"I am intrigue"* instead of *"I am intrigued"*. Use *"intrigue"* as a verb ("The story intrigues me") and *"intrigued"* as an adjective ("I am intrigued by the story"). Another mistake is confusing this sense with the 'secret plan' meaning; in this sense, no planning or politics is involved, only strong interest.
