'Stuffed' is the go-to American word for being uncomfortably full after a meal. It's more emphatic than 'full' — you've eaten so much you can barely move. The Thanksgiving table is the classic place where everyone ends up 'stuffed' (just like the turkey).

'Stuffed'是美国人用来形容饭后撑得不舒服的首选词。比'full'（饱）程度更深——你吃了太多以至于几乎动弹不得。感恩节的餐桌是经典的场景，大家都吃到'stuffed'（就像那只火鸡一样）。

'Stuffed' es la palabra americana por excelencia para describir esa sensación de estar incómodamente lleno después de una comida. Es más enfático que 'full': has comido tanto que apenas puedes moverte. La mesa de Acción de Gracias es el lugar clásico donde todos acaban 'stuffed' (igual que el pavo).

「stuffed」は食後に苦しいほどお腹がいっぱいの状態を表すアメリカの定番表現。「full」よりも強い表現で、食べすぎて身動きが取れないほどの状態を指す。サンクスギビングの食卓は「stuffed」になる典型的な場面（七面鳥に詰め物をするのと掛けている）。

'Stuffed'는 식사 후 불편할 정도로 배가 부른 상태를 나타내는 미국의 대표적 표현이다. 'Full(배부른)'보다 더 강한 표현이다 — 너무 많이 먹어서 거의 움직일 수 없을 정도. 추수감사절 식탁은 모두가 (칠면조처럼) 'stuffed'가 되는 대표적인 장소이다.
