to be carried away (by a feeling)

The French phrase 'emporté' describes a state of being overwhelmed or deeply influenced by strong emotions or feelings. It is often used in contexts where someone becomes so immersed in their emotions—such as joy, anger, or excitement—that they lose control or act in ways they might not normally do. This term captures the idea of being swept away by one's feelings, emphasizing the intensity and power of those emotions.
