In a sentence

嬉(うれ)しい!happy

I'm happy!

How it works

This is a one-word sentence: the i-adjective 嬉しい(うれしい) (happy) can stand entirely on its own as “(I’m) happy!”. There’s no subject — “I” is understood from context — and no です (is), so it stays plain and casual, a spontaneous burst of feeling.
