Groovy Translations

The other day I used the word "groovy" with the students, but they did not know what it meant. I tried to put it into other English that did not use additional slang words that they did not understand. It really is quite hard. Anyone have any groovy ideas?

Or use John's definition - LOTS AND LOTS of exposure to DISCO MUSIC!! (this method NOT recommended by Debra, or anyone else with a decent taste in music.)
