SYNONYM

"She's open to new tasks."

I'd like to replace "open" with a stronger adjective, one expressing that she gladly takes on new tasks, even seeks them. Can you think of such an adjective? I can't.

Thanks!

How about "She is eager for..."?

I'd actually thought of "receptive" myself, but it's not strong enough; it's the same as "open to."

Well, no; it's not the same.

By the way: thank you, Mav, for bothering to take the time to suggest an idea. I hope you don't feel too disappointed that it's summarily dismissed.

So what's the difference between being open to and being receptive to something?

Mav's idea was not "summarily" dismissed, for I provided a reason why I thought "receptive" wasn't the right word.

It wasn't worth mentioning.

No, not at all. I've already learned quite a lot from Jasmin's excellent questions (and from her answers, of course), and I hoped to have replied usefully. She immediately gave me feedback on why my answer had not been good, and for that I'm thankful.

I didn't mean to say that your answer was bad; I was just looking for a stronger word.
