berlimpah

Berlimpah is an Indonesian adjective that conveys abundance or plenitude. It describes a quantity or amount that is large relative to expectation, often in reference to resources, blessings, or phenomena. The term is commonly used in everyday language and in more formal or literary contexts to express a sense of plenty without implying excess or waste.

Berlimpah originates from the Indonesian root limpah with the prefix ber-, forming a stative adjective meaning "abundant." It is used across Malay-speaking regions and appears in both religious and literary registers. The idiom berlimpah ruah is a fixed expression used to emphasize overflowing abundance of people, light, or emotion.

Common collocations include berlimpah panen (abundant harvest), berlimpah rezeki (abundant sustenance), and berlimpah rahmat (abundant blessings). The phrase berlimpah ruah describes scenes such as a festival or ceremony where crowds, energy, or joy are especially plentiful. In neutral prose, berlimpah signals a positive surplus rather than wastefulness and is often chosen to convey natural or communal richness rather than mere quantity.
