Today, we’re going to study a nice little expression you can use in a number of ways.

1. to be pleased

Ela está satisfeita com os resultados. She’s pleased by the results.

Estamos satisfeitos com o projeto. We’re pleased with the project.

2. to be full

Não quero mais bolo. Estou satisfeita. I don’t want any more cake. I’m full.*

Pararam de comer porque estão satisfeitos. They stopped eating because they’re full.

3. to be satisfied

Está satisfeito com o atendimento ao cliente da empresa? Are you satisfied by the company’s customer service?

Estamos satisfeitas com a qualidade do produto. We’re satisfied by the quality of the product.

*Note that it is somewhat rude to say “Estou cheio/a” when you’re full.
