perk up

Today came across a " perk up ".

Which means:

1. to become more cheerful, positive, or active, or make somebody more cheerful, positive, or active
2. to stick up, or make something stick up, especially quickly

  1. Maybe if I wet my whistle, I'll perk up.
    如果我喝点酒,也许就来精神了。
  2. Well, if they didn't perk up, they'd be having their butcher soon.
    好吧,他们要是再不拿出点劲儿来,凶神恶煞也很快就要来叫他们尝尝味道了。
  3. Premier Saver offers you a lifetime protection and savings plan, with which you can perk up your wealth accumulation, reach your savings target faster and enjoy added peace of mind.
