ご堪能 usage and meaning


残り僅かな命をご堪能

According to a dictionary, _tannou_ can be used as an adjective or a verb (to
enjoy, be satisfied, to be skilled, ect.) But I don't understand it here.

> ►残り僅かな命をご堪能  
>  手元に残す切り札のカード  
>  I know ここで引くなどご法度  
>  ギリギリで生きるのがスタンダード

This is the full line, which might help you with the context. It’s from a song
I was translating. I don’t need help with the lines below it, and I just
didn’t want to get deleted if someone thought I was asking for a bulk
translation (because I'm not).




堪能 here is clearly used as a suru-verb because it has a direct object
(残り少ない命). Its meaning here is "to enjoy to one's heart's content." する is
omitted because it's from lyrics, and it's intended to rhyme with ご法度 two
lines after it.

Judging from the [whole lyrics](https://lyricsjpop.blogspot.jp/2016/12/sky-hi-
double-down.html), this is a song about [double down of
blackjack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackjack#Player_decisions), which is
a symbol of a make-or-break, sink-or-swim situation. So this 残り少ない命を堪能する
figuratively refers to the excitement of a person placed in such a situation.
