喜樂美語
  1. 1

    Satiation is what happens as a strong want gets filled — food, sex, even the same snack or the same kind of video — especially past “enough” and into “too much.” After satiation you do not want more; you may even feel a bit sick of it. Scientists who study eating use this word a lot: hunger falls as satiation rises. It is a formal, almost laboratory word. In ordinary talk people just say they are full or they have had enough. Though actually, satiation is not the same as being pleased (that is closer to satisfaction). You can be and still not satisfied, if there was plenty but it was not good. People also stretch it: a desire can reach satiation without anyone eating anything.

    飽足、饜足（吃到或享受某事到「夠了、甚至太多」；比「滿足」更偏「已經不想再要」）
