adjective

satt

full

Dieses Gefühl hat man, wenn man genug gegessen hat und keinen Hunger mehr verspürt.

The German word "satt" is an adjective that means "full" or "satiated", often used in the context of having eaten enough food. It conveys the feeling of being satisfied and no longer hungry.

Similar words in German include "gesättigt" (saturated), "gefüllt" (filled), and "voll" (full).

Differences:

  • "Gesättigt" is more often used in scientific contexts like chemistry or biology to describe something that is saturated.
  • "Gefüllt" and "voll" both mean "full", but they are used differently. "Gefüllt" usually describes objects or things (e.g., a filled container), while "voll" can describe both objects and abstract states but is broader in think drinks and tanks (e.g., a full glass, a full room).

"Satt" specifically pertains to the feeling after eating, differentiating it from the more general "voll" and the specific conditions of "gesättigt" and "gefüllt".
