"Enamored of" or "Enamored With?"

Welcome to the Grammar Minute, where we’re saving the English language sixty seconds at a time! I’m Lauren Smyth, back to answer another listener question. Grammatically speaking, are you enamored with something, or are you enamored of it? It’s possible to simply say you’re “enamored.” Example: She likes the new cafeteria menu, but I’m less enamored. But if something is enamoring you, which preposition do you use—of or with? It turns out that both are probably correct. “Enamored of” seems to be the standard usage, but “enamored with” is still perfectly acceptable. Though, honestly, it makes the most sense, try to avoid “enamored by.” Again, this isn’t technically wrong, but it’s rare enough to make some readers think it is. That’s your Grammar Minute!
