satisfecho

/satisˈfet͡ʃo/ · B1 · adj

satisfied

🍽️ satis + fecho = enough + done: Latin satis facere, to do enough

From Latin satisfacere: satis (enough) + facere (to make, do). The -fecho ending is an old form of hecho (done), so satisfecho is literally made-enough. It's the same root as the English satisfied and satisfaction.
