It's Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 6th.
Today's word is replete, spelled R-E-P-L-E-T-E.
Replete is an adjective.
It's used to describe things as fully or abundantly provided or filled,
abundantly fed, stout or complete.
Here's the word used, and a sentence from the LA Times by Eddie Lynn.
Her pantry is a rack replete with many of the seasonings,
staples, and condiments listed in her cookbook.
It's no coincidence that replete and complete are close in meaning.
Both words come from the Latin verb plaire, meaning to fill,
and both indicate that something contains all that is wanted, needed, or possible.
There are some subtle differences in usage, however.
Complete applies when all that is needed is present, as in a complete picture of the situation,
whereas replete is the synonym of choice when fullness is accompanied by a sense of satiety,
as in the buffet was replete with dishes from all over the world.
Etymology fans may be interested to know that the list of plurae descendants doesn't end with these two.
English is in fact replete with them.
Some other words supplied by this Latin verb include deplete, expletive, implement, and supply.
