Why this word is great

EFFERVESCE — [Verb] To bubble, foam, or fizz as gas escapes from a liquid, or to be vivaciously lively. From Latin effervescere ("to boil up"), from ef- (a form of ex-, "out") + fervēre ("to boil, be hot") + -escere (inchoative suffix, "to begin to"). Unlike "simmer," which implies a steady, contained heat, or "sparkle," which connotes a surface glitter, to effervesce is to enact an inner tumult breaking forth. It is the percussive hiss of a just-opened bottle, the frantic ascent of bubbles in a freshly poured glass, and the irrepressible rush of a new idea—a brief, fizzy rebellion against stillness, a testament that the most alive things are defined by their struggle to escape their own medium.
