saciar (present sacias, past saciis, future sacios, conditional sacius, imperative saciez)

1. (transitive) to give a bare sufficiency to, give a minimum to (someone)

   La hungreganteti povis saciar su per pano ed aquo donacita dal voluntarii.

   The starving children were able to get by (in terms of their hunger and thirst) with bread and water donated by the volunteers.

Saturar is to supply the maximum whilst saciar is to supply the minimum sufficient to calm or put a stop to some need. You can saciar your hunger by a piece of bread, your thirst by a large glass of water; but when you saturas yourself by food or drink, you risk running into either bad digestion or drunkenness.
