Feel...?
 

Feel sudden intense emotion

or

Feel suddenly an intense emotion? :thinking:

In what context?

I feel a sudden intense emotion coming on. - i.e. about to happen.

I felt suddenly an intense emotion. - i.e. past tense.

though- 'i feel very emotional' is what you would most likely use if it's happening to you at that moment.

i feel very emotional.
i felt very emotional.
i think i am going to be very emotional/i think i will be very emotional.
i/he/she/it was very emotional.

I want to say that "thrill means to feel sudden intense emotion / feel suddenly an intense emotion". :thinking:

I would go with your first one - thrill means to feel a sudden intense emotion. only thing i would add is the 'a'.

although, 'thrill means to suddenly feel an intense emotion' could also work. or 'thrill means to suddenly feel intense emotions'

I like "a sudden intense emotion".

Thanks! :) :rose:
