Word origin

The native Korean base 푸짐 (pujim, "plentiful and satisfying") combines with 하다 (hada, "to be") to form an adjective meaning generous and ample.

Usage tips

  • In conversation, generous can describe a meal or what a shop provides, not only a person's character, so it often signals satisfying portions or extras.
