The serene peaceful life of contemporaries leaves an imprint on the perception of some well-established, but half-forgotten definitions. A person of the 21st century, if you try to find out from him what “full” means, he will certainly ask: what kind of vessel are we talking about. Perhaps a glass or a pool? What if they speak in a figurative sense and mean an excess of happiness and positive emotions in someone's soul? Not at all, the reality is not so positive.
Times of war
When humanity lived compactly, in small tribes, the easiest way to solve the problem with neighbors was considered a military clash. Seize property, and kill opponents or pick up in full. What is it and how did it happen? Elementary morphemic analysis makes obvious the similarity with the word "captivity". Therefore, the term under study is divided into synonyms:
- bondage;
- captured.
Used when discussing the very fact of capture or being in the hands of the enemy as booty. The expression is obsolete, in official documents for a long timenot used as in everyday speech.
But in an elevated style, the meaning of the word "full" is complemented by a worldview: a feeling that all words and actions are useless, because they will not change life circumstances. However, in a broad sense, the term covers not only people, but also animals, livestock, jewelry and any property that has become booty as a result of a military campaign.

An unexpected interpretation is given by the people of Malaysia. Old people and children absolutely know exactly what “full” means. After all, folklore denotes by the word Polong a spirit that was specially bred and nurtured to serve man. Through a relatively simple ritual, an otherworldly invisible being is summoned to serve faithfully in exchange for the blood of its host.
Although the service is special: to cause harm. Therefore, they developed a method of exorcism using black peppercorns, garlic cloves and oil in the course of a ritual led by a spiritual leader.
Using practice
Russia is full of its own devils, therefore, the traditional meaning of "captivity" is used if they do not describe any container or room. Usually you understand from the context what “full” is: the result of a military conflict or the state of a mug of tea. At the household level, it is not customary to describe in the indicated terms the presence or absence of freedom of movement. Such situations happen too rarely, which is why shorter modern synonyms are popular. But in artistic, historicalLiterature colorful turn will be appropriate, emphasize the atmosphere of the time.
