Definition
沛 is a bound form (b.f.) meaning 'abundant' or 'copious'. It does not stand alone as a word; you will see it only in compound words and phrases, most commonly 充沛 ('abundant', of energy or resources) and 沛然 ('copiously', a literary adverb for rainfall or tears). Use it within these set expressions rather than substituting for 丰富 or 充足.
