May 9, 2016 at 13:41 | comment | added | user174351 | @AlexanderShmatko Rather than a difference in meaning, I would focus on the difference in tone or formality. 'psyched' as an adjective is at least somewhat colloquial. I wouldn't use it in formal writing, except as a joke. 'thrilled' is neutral: you can use it both in formal writing and in casual conversation. I don't think that there is a significant difference in meaning, at least not a large or clear one. | |
