English in a Minute: Jazz it Up (使更有趣;使活泼;使有活力;使活跃)(ZT)

Welcome to English in a minute. Jazz is a kind of music that started in America. Here is the idiom that uses the word Jazz. Jazz it up:

------I am getting tired of the way my apartment looks. I think I need to jazz it up a little bit.

------Oh, I can help with that. All we need to do is to put some paint on the wall, , add some plants, hang some art work.

------Don't you think that is bit wee too much.

------No, it looks great. You want your place to jazz up. That is jazz up.

To jazz it up, make something more exciting, more interesting, or just more fun. To jazz something up, is to shake things a little bit, just like the music.  And that's English in a minute.
