Adds an [[enchantment]] to a player's selected item, subject to the same restrictions as an [[anvil mechanics|anvil]].

;Syntax

: <code>enchant <''player''> <''enchantment ID''> [''level'']</code>

;Arguments

: ''player''
:: Specifies the target(s). Must be a player name or [[#Target selectors|target selector]].

: ''enchantment ID''
:: Specifies the enchantment to be added to the item held by the target. Must be a valid [[Data values#Enchantment IDs|enchantment ID]] (for example, <code>16</code> or <code>minecraft:sharpness</code>).

: ''level'' (optional)
:: Specifies the enchantment level. Must be at least 1 and not greater than the [[Data values#Enchantment IDs|maximum level]] for the specified enchantment. If not specified, defaults to 1.

;Result

: Fails if arguments are not specified correctly, if ''player'' fails to resolve to one or more online players, or if the enchantment is not valid for the item or conflicts with current enchantments (for example, "Fire Protection" cannot be given to armor which already has "Protection", and "Sharpness III" cannot be given to a sword which already has "Sharpness I").

: On success, adds the specified enchantment to the item held by the target.

;Examples

: To give the Infinity enchantment to all players holding a bow: <code>enchant @a 51</code>

;Note

: Although <code>/enchant</code> enforces maximum levels and compatibility, other commands (such as {{cmd|give}}, {{cmd|replaceitem}}, and {{cmd|entitydata}}) can bypass these restrictions.
