A portmanteau combining the words fun and animated.
Often used to describe someone who is very entertaining because of their use of
bold,
dramatic gestures and facial expressions.
People who are funimated typically make excellent storytellers and are both happily and deservedly the center of
attention at gatherings.
"Is
Sammy shouting and gesturing at an imaginary
dog?"
"Probably. She's really funimated. We should
go over there...I bet she's telling a great story."
