crammed
word · lemma: cram
Definition
Filled completely so that there is hardly any space left. It can describe a place, container, or even a schedule packed with things or people.
Usage & Nuances
Mostly informal; often used for rooms, buses, bags, or academic schedules. 'Crammed with' is the typical collocation. Also relates to studying in a short period ('cram for an exam'), but 'crammed' itself more often means 'packed full' rather than rushed studying.
