Stuffed or filled; swollen or distended with contents; having a filled or solid appearance.
From Latin 'farctus,' past participle of 'farcire' (to stuff), plus the adjectival suffix '-ate.' The Latin root is the same origin as French 'farci' and English 'farce,' preserving the 'stuffing' semantic core.
Latin 'farctus' shows how the stuffing metaphor pervaded multiple Romance languages and even entered English scientific terminology—a 'farctate' bone is one that appears filled rather than hollow, using the same ancient image.
