Japanese[edit]

Kanji in this term
充 牣
Grade: S Hyōgaiji
irregular

Etymology[edit]

Gikun word derived by applying Chinese-derived spelling 充牣 (“fill”), a term which decomposes into 充 (“be full”) + 牣 (“fill up”), to native Japanese verb みつ (mitsu, “to fill”).

Verb[edit]

充牣 (みて)[1] (mite) → 満(み)つ (mitsu)

  1. fill
※ Note: みて (mite) is the imperative form of みつ (mitsu, be filled). Two kanji with similar sense forming 充牣 (みて) emphasizing the imperative (みてよ, miteyo) in Genesis 1:22.
※ See also 滿盈 (みて) (mite). There are two gikun versions of みて (mite) in Genesis 1.
