Alright, so, "enrage" is a word we use to describe when someone gets really, really angry. Like, so mad that they might start yelling, or even stomping their feet. It's not just regular angry - it's like when someone's anger goes from 0 to 100 in just a few seconds.

Imagine if you have a toy that you really, really love, and then someone comes along and breaks it. How do you think that would make you feel? You'd probably feel really, really mad, right? That's kind of like what it means to be "enraged." It's when something happens that makes someone feel so incredibly angry that they can't control themselves.

Now, "enrage" can also mean to make someone angry on purpose. Like if someone says something mean to you to get a reaction out of you, they might be trying to "enrage" you. It's like they're purposely trying to make you feel that really intense, out-of-control anger.

So, to sum it up, "enrage" is a word that describes when someone gets super, super angry, like when they're so mad that they might lose control of their emotions. It's like an explosion of anger, and it can happen because of something that really upsets them, or it can be caused by someone trying to make them mad on purpose.
