解説 Definition

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 replenish「補充する」に -ed を付けた過去形・過去分詞で、ここでは形容詞的に「補充された」。語末 /ʃ/ の後なので -ed は /t/ と発音する。replenished shelves「商品が補充された棚」、replenished supplies「補給された物資」のように、減っていた量が必要な水準まで戻った状態を描く。refilled より在庫・資源全体の回復に使いやすい。
Begin with replenish, “to fill or supply again,” and add the regular past-participle ending -ed. After the final /ʃ/ sound, -ed is pronounced /t/, so replenished ends like /ʃt/. Picture store shelves that were nearly empty and are now fully stocked: they have been replenished. The word often modifies supplies, stocks, water, energy, or shelves after something has been depleted. Compared with refilled, which often focuses on filling a particular container again, replenished more readily suggests restoring a broader supply or stock to an adequate level.
例文

replenished の語源・成り立ち Etymology
replenished は replenish「満たし直す」の過去分詞で、古フランス語 replenir を経てラテン語 plenus「満ちた」に由来する。re-「再び」+ plen-「満ちる」と見ると、「減ったものをもう一度いっぱいにする」ので「補充された」が自然に理解できる。関連語は replete, plenty。
Replenished is the past-tense and past-participle form of replenish. Replenish entered English through Old French replenir and related forms, ultimately connected with Latin plenus, “full.” Its history therefore centers on making something full or adequately supplied again. The modern form ends in the regular suffix -ed, pronounced /t/ after the voiceless /ʃ/ sound. Words such as replete and plenty share the historical idea of fullness, though they developed through different forms.
