Hi Gabriela The answer to your question is no, I'm afraid. In English we do things with *verve* So, for example, we might say "He played the violin solo with verve." Verve is a characteristic of something that people do. It's not a characteristic that can be possessed by a "thing," such as scientific knowledge.

It isnt idiomatic, but it makes sense. Maybe you could say - she has a scientific enthusiasm and verve for knowledge. We don't usually combine the word verve with another word, but i do not think it is technically wrong to do so.

"She is enthusiastic with a scientific verve about knowledge " Would work better if the verve relates to her being enthusiastic (and not to the knowledge). - note also "a" is important before the phrase

You could also says "She is enthusiast with scientific verve."
