Definition
充满 (chōng mǎn) is the neutral go-to verb for 'full of, brimming with' — it works for both physical things (a room full of scent) and abstract feelings (heart full of hope), without positive or negative bias. Unlike 充斥 (negative flood of undesirable things), 洋溢 (positive atmosphere/emotion radiating outward), or 满怀 (heart filled with a single emotion), 充满 has no special collocation or register.
