https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/top-off-...

أَتْرَعَ الإنَاءَ أو الكَأْسَ : مَلأَهُ
أَتْرَعَ نَفْسَهُ بِالْحِقْدِ : شَحَنَهَا
الأَتْرَع من السُّيول : الذي يملأُ الواديَ

أَفْعَمَ: (فعل)

أفعمَ يُفعم ، إفعامًا ، فهو مُفعِم ، والمفعول مُفعَم
أفعم الإناءَ : ملأه وأتمَّ ملأه ، مفعَمٌ بالسعادة ،
أفْعَمَ المِسْكُ البَيْتَ : مَلأَهُ بِطيبِهِ
