gassy

Full of air

Gassy describes something full of or producing gas.

A gassy stomach is bloated with intestinal gas; a gassy beverage is highly carbonated.

Gassy speech is full of hot air—empty, inflated talk: His gassy promises never amounted to anything.

In technical contexts, gassy refers to substances that release or contain gas: a gassy coal seam.
