Are there some cases where みたす could be spelled as 充たす? 「充｛み｝たす」という書き方はどんな場合で使えるか？


Since 充 can be used to spell 充｛あ｝てる it can have the meaning of "to match".
Therefore, the only place where I think 充たす fits is to say something like
ある条件を充たす. Nevertheless, according to the 漢字漢和辞典 I looked up, 満たす can cover all
the senses of みたす.

In what cases 充たす can be used?

「充」という漢字は「充｛あ｝てる」という単語に表れているから「一致」という意をも持っています。したがって、「充」は「ある条件を充たす」といった場合に使うことができると思ったが、調べた漢字漢和辞典によると、「満たす」という綴り方が「みたす」のすべての意を満たすから、かなり迷っています。

それで、「充たす」を使える場合を教えてもらえませんか。




充たす is less common and perhaps more literary than 満たす, because the kun-reading
充たす is not listed in 常用漢字表. Personally I don't semantically distinguish the
two, and when I write something I always stick to 条件を満たす, エネルギーを満たす, 欲求を満たす,
幸福な気持ちで満たされる, and so on.

According to BCCWJ Corpus, 満たす is roughly 20 times more common than 充たす today.
As far as I can see, all the examples of 充たす there were safely replaceable
with 満たす.
