Also means
to take pride (reflexive)
Usage Note
Enorgullecer is typically used reflexively as enorgullecerse de — 'to be proud of' something or someone. The non-reflexive transitive use ('to fill with pride') is more formal. Note the stem change: enorgullece, enorgullecemos; the reflexive me enorgullezco follows the -cer/-zco pattern.
Examples
"Me enorgullece el trabajo de mi hijo."
Natural Translation
My son's work makes me proud.
