How to Use:

It is used when you want to express happiness, especially when things go the way you wanted, something good happens to you, or you’re satisfied with a situation. We also often say it when someone gives us a gift and it makes us happy. Just be careful—うれしい (Ureshii) isn’t used to talk about general happiness, like being happy overall. It’s more for those temporary feelings of joy from a specific event or achievement.
