1 extremely happy and excited, often because something has happened or been achieved:
He was elated by the news that he had won a full scholarship.
It neither depresses nor surprises me that they should be elated by those facts.
I do not think that it is anything to be elated about.

There is no more difficult and delicate operation than the withdrawal of troops in the face of an enemy who must necessarily be elated.
Naturally they are elated, for they have now contracts for the supply of two million kilos of herrings.
However, while it is a mistake to get too elated by a success, it is also wrong to get too downhearted by setbacks.
We cannot possibly be elated over a measure of this kind.
So, as they were not unduly elated, they are not now unduly depressed.
