Morphology

satiated = satiate (transparent) = satiate + ed

Formed as the past-participle/adjectival 'satiate' + '-ed', directly meaning 'fully satisfied'.

Etymology

Satiated comes from the Latin root satis, which means 'enough', and is related to the simple words sate and satisfy. So to be satiated is to have had 'enough'—especially of food—and to feel fully satisfied.
