English equivalent of Japanese Genki?

Question:

Can anyone think of ONE word in English that has the exact same meaning as the Japanese word "Genki"? I'm wondering if there even is an english equivalent

Answer:

There is no one English word that can describe genki as it has different meanings depending on how it is used. For example, it can mean good to answer a question like "How are you?" Ogenki desu ka? Genki desu.

It can also mean energetic to describe how someone is. For example, kono ko sugoi genki desu ne. That girl is really energetic.
