fill a place with people or life
To make a place have people or animals living there.
사용 패턴:
to populate [a place] (with [people/animals])
자주 하는 실수:
Learners sometimes use *populate* when they simply mean *live*: for example, saying "I populate in London" is incorrect. Use "I live in London". *Populate* is usually used for describing how many people or animals are in a place, or how they came to be there, often in a more formal or descriptive context (e.g. geography, history). Also, the preposition is usually *with*, as in "The valley is populated with small villages," not *by* when focusing on the thing added.
유의어
inhabit (Focuses on living in a place, usually used for the people or animals themselves rather than an outside cause.)
반의어
depopulate (Means to reduce or remove the number of people in a place, often through leaving or forced movement.)

fill a thing with data/items
To put information or items into a form, list, or database so that it is filled.
사용 패턴:
to populate [something] with [data/items]
자주 하는 실수:
Learners may confuse *populate* with *complete* when talking about forms. For example, "populate the form" is common in technical or IT contexts, while in everyday speech people more often say "fill in the form" or "complete the form." Also, *populate* usually takes *with*, as in "populate the table with data," not *by* or *of*.
유의어
fill (A more general and less technical word; it does not specifically suggest data structures or electronic forms.)
반의어
empty (Means to remove all contents or data, which is the opposite of adding entries or information.)
